Veteran's Administration Castration
How about that government-subsidized VA medicine - only the best for our troops, right? According to an Associated Press piece from April 4th, a 47-year-old veteran of the U.S. Air Force is suddenly missing something rather important as a result of sloppy medical care: His only good testicle!
Evidently, the dyslexic docs at the West Los Angeles VA Medical Center removed the man's right testicle (wrong, they mean) instead of his likely cancerous and atrophied left one. The hospital's Chief of Staff has formally apologized to the man and his wife - the article does not say whether he volunteered one of his own testicles as a replacement.
