If I were a 30 something white woman, with stomach cancer, banging this little asian dude AND I got knocked up, who'd give two rat's asses?

A couple months ago I was on my shift in the ER at the hospital where I work. This women came in vomiting and complaining of stomach pains. Now I'm generally not the kind of person to jump the gun, but from the first few seconds of walking into exam room 3 I just knew that this lady had stomach cancer.

So we ran a few tests and I turned out to be correct. We decided to skip running other tests (this turned out to be a bad idea later on). We started her out on chemo pretty soon after the diagnosis. She had surgery and everything was going just dandy. She was then scanned to see if there were any remaining cancer cells, and during the scan they find out shes been pregnant the whole time. I'm like what the fuck, run that scan again. So they scanned her three more times, and shes was pregnant each time, and I'm freaking out, because this baby is going to be messed up.

So the lady and the asian guy she had a one night stand with decide to have the baby, and miraculously this baby comes out with the appropriate number of limbs and appendages. The baby looks fine now but what about 5 years down the road. The baby was exposed to a metric shit ton of radiation, like Chernobyl levels of radiation.

For some reason they aren't suing us (does this make sense to anyone? Realistically they could get millions in malpractice lawsuits). The hospital has decided to terminate my employment to distance themselves from me. So I'm the fall guy. Needless to say I'm a bit pissed right now.

on the forms she filled out, wasn't the chance of pregnancy on the list? 10-day rule question?

also, how far along was the fetus whenever you irradiated it?

personally, i think you took an oath to, above all else, do no harm. your primary concern was treating the cancer before it spread. if she consented to treatment and was given the risks and alternatives, you're clean. she didn't know she was pregnant and there was nothing for you to suggest, by her symptomatology, that she might be pregnant, especially if the patient denied being pregnant on her intake form (which i'm assuming she did, otherwise you'd have caught it). you did no harm to the patient, you saved her life.

lesson learned, i suppose. just be thankful she's not suing.


edit: lol i didn't know it was a parody thread
very nicely played...
