Best Emergency Room Stories of 1995
La Grange, GA - Attorney Antonio Mendoza was released from a trauma center
after having a cell phone removed from his rectum. "My dog drags the thing
all over the house," he said later. "He must have dragged it into the
shower. I slipped on the tile, tripped against the dog and sat down right
on the thing." The extraction took more than three hours due to the fact
that the cover to Mr. Mendoza's phone had opened during insertion. "He was
a real trooper during the entire episode," said Dr. Dennis Crobe. "Tony
just cracked jokes and really seemed to be enjoying himself. Three times
during the extraction his phone rang and each time, he made jokes about it
that just had us rolling on the floor. By the time we finished, we really
did expect to find an answering machine in there"
