Hospital tells grandfather, 71, that he's pregnant

Recommended Posts

PORTLAND, Ore. - John Grady Pippen of Gold Beach doesn't look pregnant. And he's not. But after a hospital visit earlier this month, the staff gave the 71-year-old grandfather pain pills and paperwork explaining his delicate condition.

 

"Based on your visit today," the paperwork told him, "we know you are pregnant."

 

The retired mechanic and logger had sought help for agonizing abdominal pain at Curry General Hospital in Gold Beach.

 

Hospital administrator William McMillan says an errant keystroke caused the hospital's computer to spit out the wrong discharge instructions.

I would hate be the person who gave him the paperwork. The jokes that run through my are just pure evil! :whistling:
