My first reaction is ‘kill me now‘. My second reaction is that this man is going to be very wealthy soon.
It seems that a grown man went into the hospital to have surgery. He was to have a circumcision, you see, and what actually happened was the doctors ended up amputating his penis.
Whoops. Sorry!
I happened to be right outside this poor man’s room when he awoke after surgery. Here’s a recap of the conversation where the bumbling doctor had to tell him what had just happened:
Doctor: (smiling, nervous) “Hey Buddy, how you feeling?”
Patient: (writhing in pain) “Not too good Doc, how’d it go in there? Cause it kinda hurts real bad.”
Doctor: (not sure what to do with his hands) “Yeah well, about that. Let’s see, how do I put this…?” “Well the thing of it is, we had to, um, uh, well it’s not so much we had to…we just uh, it reminds me of a funny story actually, you see we umm…”
Patient: “Yes?”
Doctor: (turning for, and walking rapidly towards, the door) “We-amputated-your-penis-by-mistake-I-gotta-run-now-bye-see-you-later.”
Patient: (waving, smiling, then it hits) “ok, thanks for…wait, WHAT?“
Doctor: (leaning his head back in through the door frame) “Yeah, it’s gone.”
Patient: (starting to yell) “WTF do you mean it’s gone?”
Doctor: (from halfway down the hall) “We cut it off.”
And it all went quickly to hell from there as you might imagine. I won’t go any further, I don’t want to teach Four any new words.
But you can read about it more here.
Oh. my. God.
