Re: Whats the craziest or funniest thing you ever seen as a nurse?

I'm sure if I sat here I could think of something crazier than this but one thing that comes to mind was the lady who as a child in Honduras stuck a tamarind shell up her nose and couldn't get it out. Fast forward about a year, and her mom starts smelling something something foul.....takes her to a local healer and they get the offending tamarind shell.

She comes to us 20 years later and lo and behold STILL has bits and pieces of the darn thing still in there and (big shocker here) lots of nasal congestion and sinus issues.

That's definitely not the crazist or funniest, but it's still made us all go, "huh?"
