Although I would love to use my superior intelligence to help people and to cure diseases I don't think I could ever be a doctor or anyone whose mistakes could literally be life and death.
Darrie Eason of Long Island was told she had invasive lobular carcinoma and underwent a double mastectomy.
Fortunately, or unfortunately, for Eason four months later, she was told that her tissue sample was mixed up with another patient's. She did not have breast cancer.
But even worse, the other patient, who thought she was fine, has cancer, and missed four months of treatment.
