Hospital informs grandfather he is pregnant

Curry General Hospital in Gold Beach, Oregon informed a 71-year-old grandfather that he is pregnant.

John Grady Pippen, a retired mechanic and logger, was being treated for abdominal pain.

The hospital administrator said an errant keystroke caused the hospital's computer to print out the wrong discharge instructions.

Mr. Pippen was probably relieved to learn he wasn’t pregnant after all.
