My christ... Circumcision led to an amputation... without the patient being consulted

[Mechsoap]

Cant he just get a plastic willy as replacement, and everyone is happy?

No. I don't think he would be happy to have a plastic willy. I imagine he'd much prefer to have his back. You know, for sexual pleasure and what not.

I'm sure though I would be happy not to die of cancer, and live to see the day when plastic willies have nerves attached to them.

To be honest, at this point I imagine he'd be, at best, meh. Because even though the cancer is gone, the penis is also gone, which rather takes the shine off the whole lack of cancer. Especially as it was apparently treatable, and the doctor didn't have permission to lop his genitals off.

Then i was wrong and misunderstood the context of the lawsuit, thank you for revealing that.

 

[Scarim Coral]

Ouch talking about taking your manhood away from you. I feel really sorry for him. I dare to ask is how does he even pee now?

 

[Zykon TheLich]

What an idiot doctor, waiting for the guy to come round and then asking him what he wanted do do would have made no difference whatsoever in terms of survival. It might well have been benign for all he knew.
You know, it's probably an urban myth but I have heard of some guy getting a dick transplant, maybe the doc could donate his?

 

[NickCaligo42]

Wow. I'm female and I'm having sympathy pains for the guy.

That's one lawsuit that I can get behind. Rip that doctor a new one!

Yeah, agreed. That's inexcusable. No amount of money that doctor could pay the guy is enough to cover something like this. If I were him I'd be suing to have the guy's medical license revoked.

 

[Arehexes]

I pity the fool......oh my, I will never complain about having a bad day again.

You and me both brrrother, I mean WOW I will never take forget how lucky I am to have a penis to use. I will pee extra hard for that poor soul -_-.

 

[Snake Plissken]

He is going to get a huge payout.

And a huge penis. I'm pretty sure Lorena Bobbitt's husband got some monstrosity sewn between his legs after his wife chopped his off...

 

[Arkley]

Jesus motherfucking Christ.

If I went under for a procedure and woke up to the doctor telling me he amputated my penis, I wouldn't be the only one leaving that hospital room missing a cock.

 

[Dogstile]

That's one lawsuit that I can get behind.

I think from now on he's going to need people behind him, hur hur...

OT: Dear god, I think I would have killed the doctor then and there.

 

[Chimpzy_v1legacy]

Wow, that would ruin any man's day for the rest of his days.

There have been seriously botched or ill-treated circumcisions leading to amputation before, but in most cases it was necessary to stop gangreen and such. But to unilaterally remove his penis for a cancer that they could have tried curing first? Let's just say mine shrunk like never before after reading that.

 

[Thedayrecker]

To be fair, it is Kentucky

At least he has a story to tell his grandki-- Oh....

 

[Dags90]

And a huge penis. I'm pretty sure Lorena Bobbitt's husband got some monstrosity sewn between his legs after his wife chopped his off...

His penis was recovered and reattached, it wasn't a transplant or anything like that. I'm not even sure if penis transplants exist. Though if we can transplant faces, why not?

 

[CactiComplex]

Dear god.

Really? Surely a trained professional like that should have known that he'd need to actually examine the cancerous growth and, you know, tell his patient he's got cancer before deciding on a course of action.

The doctor's a guy, what if someone did that exact same thing to him? Would he still stand behind his actions then?

Damn... No way a lawsuit will make things better for that guy.

 

[Starke]

Cut off his dick to save his life?
Honestly I'd rather die

Yeah, except it wasn't a lifesaving procedure. The cancer was stage one, and treatable without, you know, lopping his schlong off.

...and this, folks, is one of the many colorful reasons to not live in Louisville... >.<

 

[Amethyst Wind]

Who is this doctor who does this without the consent of the patient, while they're unconscious?

I'll run through the list of things that will happen to this doctor now (any order):

Sued.
License permanently revoked.
Jail time.
Universal scorn and social leprosy.
Physically assaulted.
Dies broke and homeless.

What kind of 28-tries-to-pass-the-bar idiot is this guy? I-don't-have-to-but-the-doc-probably-should check his textbooks to see that THEY DON'T JUST GROW BACK!

 

[Reed Spacer]

I guess he was ...*puts on sunglasses*...cold-cocked.

 

[ShadowsofHope]

..Excuse me a moment while I go attach a 3 inch thick steel protective box around my testicles in light of this.. event.

To the mind bleach! <_<

 

[Novania]

Oh god I'm cringing and I haven't even read the damn article!!!

 

[Trebort]

That gentleman is going to come in to a lot of money very soon.
