Woman died after doctors failed to spot toilet brush in her buttocks

[Reasonable]

Oh dear - terrible but horribly funny.

I can get failing to spot it assuming it was plastic, but my mind boggles that:

a) over 2 years someone failed to notice that she had what I presume was a plastic handle stuck inside her flesh whenever she went to the doctors

b) that an operation to remove something embedded in the soft flesh of the buttocks could go so wrong

I guess the Moral is:

1 - don't take no for an answer when you know something is stuck in your body

2 - try and avoid falling drunkenly onto plastic toilet cleaners
