Disappoint

Hm, how would a baby's presence influence two professional doctors to engage in fisticuffs? I have no explanation except for that the baby is a demon child and the end-times are beginning.

Other things that can go wrong during childbirth you may not have thought of:

1.) Earthquake
2.) Meteor
3.) Doctor is a baby-snatcher
4.) The day is December 21, 2012
5.) You're not really pregnant
6.) Fetus is the next Hitler

when my Ex was giving birth to our first child at ST Vincents in NYC she was in terrible pain and started doing a lot of cursing Holy shiat ! god dammit! mother farker #@#$%!!!

the nurse , a very "aggressive" " urban " lady starts yelling back.. " DON'T YOU BE TAKEN THE LORDS NAME IN VAIN!!! "

i thought there was going to be a fist fight

What an unbelievably tragic day for that family. Guh, I can't imagine being the husband.

God Fallon is a horrible singer.

I think even Craig Ferguson could do a better job singing.

They went against a Sicilian when death was on the line?

At first I was confused, but then...

"[...] on the Italian island of Sicily [...]"

... it all began to make sense.

What're malpractice suits like in Italy?

It's better than the doctor commenting on how nice your wife's vagina is.

LOL! Was in a delivery room years ago with a woman in your wife's state X10. Thought we needed to throw holy water on her or something. Then the baby was born and she started gushing about her little gift from Jesus. She was a minister's wife.

Women are not responsible for their actions during transition- they get a free pass. Lucky your wife didn't kill that nurse on the spot. You don't fark with a mom in transition.

8.) The baby comes out black even though you and your wife aren't.

#8 has definately been known to happen. The kids are very light but you can tell by the pigmentation on the ears and little boy and girl parts. The delivery staff just uses the policy of STFU and GTHO of the room. We don't see nuthin!

The first rule about fight club...

Awkward don't begin to describe it! We ran like we were on fire. Those moms were going to have some 'splaining to do in a few months. Only saw it a few times. Makes you wonder how many times daddy isn't really the daddy. Eek!

Fight to the Death Panel?

The Daily Fail reporting something outrageous? It must be true!

At my old hospital 2 orthopedic surgeons went at each other. Luckily they saved it until they were out of the OR. Lots of consequences for both of them. They are still suing each other and the hospital and it has been years.

They were both royal dicks. I didn't even work in their specialty and I'd heard some stories. I would have paid good money to see that fight. Two Doctor Gods with major ego issues.

The fight in TFA is insane. I hope the poor family cleans them both out financially.

All this over a Chuckle...

Most doctors are pretentious overcompensated assholes that feel the world owes them something for their time spent in medical school, and the loans they owe. They will never get you well, there is no profit in true healing.

Most, no. I'd say it runs about 20%. They grew up being told they were special and believed it. These are the assholes that nobody wants to work with. Some of the worst are women. God forbid you mistake them for a nurse- you better have your track shoes on. These people would have been intolerable in any career the chose. Being a doctor makes it worse, they think people should fawn over them. Some of the ego trips are good doctors so you can just tune them out. The ones that aren't are scary. They don't seek advice when they should and sometimes make pretty bad calls. Being convinced you are a genius and not being too bright is a deadly combination.

How odd, not American . . .

I bet you believe that colonics and herbs are the cure to the One True Cause of disease, too.

First, they called math "maths".
Then, instead of the water breaking, it is the "waters" that broke.

I feel like punching a European right now.

You're damn right the world does. Med school sucks! I demand free stuff!

Wednesday. I am still owed a steak. Dammit. Rip the horns off. Wipe its butt. Drag it over the grill. Rare.

Rare. Like the *men* in my life.

That actually happened to a family I know. The mother's parents are extremely religious, and they just go to family gatherings as if nothing is amiss and nobody in the family ever mentions the kid's skin color. Ever.

Similar situation happened with my cousin's son. Her family claimed the father was "Italian" which also ran under the assumption that their extended family was either "retarded" or "blind."

Obviously they didn't have one of these.

Sounds like the arrogant jerkwad anesthesiologist who messed up the epidural during our first kid's birth, openly blamed his failure on my wife being "uncooperative" and being just plain put together wrong, treated the nurses with contempt and wouldn't look either of *us* in the eye, and acted annoyed that we wasted his valuable time.

We asked about him 3 years later when #2 was born. By then, he wasn't allowed in that hospital anymore...

12. The nurse says your crowning and the dr is half an hour away. Dont worry. Just close and hold your legs together tight when the urge to push sets in.

Not so much in an OR or delivery room but don't heated arguments happen often between doctors. Usually over billing, one guys practice owes the other, stuff like that?

This article strikes me as odd. Why would they argue right then and there about the method of delivery? Was she at risk for complications that made a normal birth too dangerous and one of the doctors disagreed? That sort of thing, unless it's an emergency situation, is usually planned out for various reasons.

We're missing a couple details.

1/10.

Next time you're sick, don't come to my hospital, go to a comedian. I'm sure they will provide true healing with the gift of laughter, which is much better than antibiotics.

my pregnant wife is not amused by this story

So, as a result, she suffers, the kid suffers, they can't have kids any more,brain damage to the baby..

So, how is the civil damages system in Italy?
