Here’s one that will get your goat. An Oregon man went to the hospital earlier this month with abdominal pains. What glorious news he received with his pain medication and discharge papers. He was pregnant. I’m not making this up, it is a true story.
The retired mechanic and logger had sought help for agonizing abdominal pain at Curry General Hospital in Gold Beach. When he received his discharge paper written there was "Based on your visit today we know you are pregnant." Not bad for a 71 year old grandfather.
Hospital administrator William McMillan says an errant keystroke caused the hospital's computer to spit out the wrong discharge instructions. Guess we know who the idiot in charge there is. I am glad I don’t go to that hospital.
