Gah! Pop goes the weasel!
It’s late, and I should probably go to sleep (or at least come up with a better headline).
But this article on Salon.com may keep me up for another few hours.
A nurse practicioner in Albuquerque, N.M has a lawsuit pending against her for allegedly pulling out the IUDs of multiple patients on purpose. After her “oops, I did it again” shtick, the nurse lectures the women and refuses to insert a new IUD.
“Surely, the patient must have been terrified — but then the nurse offered an explanation: ‘I accidentally pulled out your IUD. I gently tugged and out it came … I cut the string than went back and gently pulled and out it came. It must have not been in properly.’
“…having the IUD come out was a good thing…I personally do not like IUDs. I feel they are a type of abortion. I don’t know how you feel about abortion, but I am against them.”
Night!

Abortion. Where is this hospital? The deep south. The nurse is CRAZY, but the patient is also nuts.
