TINY MINDS

… doctors are yucky so I didn’t bother to ask anyone…

JERUSALEM (Reuters) – Israeli doctors have removed a grapefruit-sized stone from the bladder of an Israeli woman after she left it untreated for years, possibly breaking world records.

The stone, removed in its entirety, had a diameter of 13 centimetres (5.1 inches) and weighed almost 1 kilogramme (2.2 lbs), doctors who treated the 48-year-old woman at the Western Galilee Hospital in northern Israel said.

“When I saw the stone, I was stunned,” patient Moneera Khalil said in a statement released by the hospital.

“I could not believe such a thing was inside my body. I am happy everything ended well and that the pain is gone.”

No word on whether they found any kind of brain inside this woman’s head; results won’t be back for three weeks since NASA must process the Hubble pictures painstakingly via their supercomputers. Doctors aren’t hopeful.
