Tree Growing In Lungs
04.27.09 (1:01 am) [edit]
A man in Russia was diagnoed with cancer of the lungs. He had a lot of pain and coughing up blood so he had to have surgery, but first they did an XRay to see how big the growth was.
They decided to operate and after the incision was made they saw something but it was not cancer, it was a tree.

Oh how horrible. Well, not that cancer would be better, but ...
I couldn't actually view the 'story' as when I clicked on it
my computer 'froze' and I had to turn it off and start over again.
I had heard about this earlier from another source, so I'll not try to go there again.

Strange...the Xray shows it clearly...can they not read an xray? then why the biopsy to discover it?? Ahhhh well...I have so little faith in doctors!!!
