1786...Ooops I Did It Again

Or before.

It is cutting off a breast that did not need to be cut off; the cutter is Dr. Barbara Heartwell of Windsor, Ontario's Hôtel-Dieu Grace Hospital.

In WFDS Post 1758...Oooops I told you about her first oopsie last fall; as it turns out it was, at minimum, her second. The fall of '09 error was when, CBC News reports, "Laurie Johnston, 44, of Leamington, underwent a mastectomy at the hands of Heartwell in November 2009. It was only in a followup appointment that Heartwell told Johnston she had never had cancer to begin with. The hospital revealed Heartwell had misread the initial pathology report."Her first was back in '01. "Hôtel-Dieu Grace Hospital said Dr. Barbara Heartwell removed Janice Laporte's breast in 2001, though a post-surgery pathology report showed the woman did not have cancer."

May be Danny Williams was on to something.
