Jesus -- how do you make a mistake like that??
"An elderly Strand woman in the Western Cape who was severely injured after she had an enema incorrectly performed on her has been awarded R250 000 for pain and suffering by the Cape High Court.
"In April 2000 the woman, who may not be named by order of court, needed a barium enema to test for the possibility of colon cancer.
"However, the radiographer who performed the enema inserted the instrument
into her vagina instead of her rectum and, despite complaints by the woman, pushed it right through her vaginal wall."
