surgeon amputates wrong leg

A doctor at a public hospital in southern Mexico mistakenly amputated the right leg of an elderly patient who had sought treatment for an infection in his left foot. Seeking treatment for a foot wound aggravated by diabetes, Alberto Lopez, 74, was admitted to a Social Security Institute hospital in Tuxtla Gutierrez, 430 miles south of Mexico City, and underwent surgery on Friday. The patient emerged from surgery without a right leg and still suffering from the original infection, according to family members. Reference : Newsday.com..

That's why I plan to use a Sharpie if I ever have to be relieved of any limbs. The night before surgery, I will prominently write "YES, Cut This One Off" on the bad appendage and "STOP, not this one" on the other.

Just saying

Techincally, you could still father children w/out Mr Happy.

As long as the Twins are still intact, although the mechanics of it could be challenging.

They routinely write on the affected and non-affected limb now a days...
