- I Recall reading about a medical mishap back in the late 70s (I think).
- A doctor slipped up during a circumcision of a bouncing baby boy, and
- recommended to the parents that he should have a sex change operation
- and be rasied as a girl. Seems that the kid's fledgling manhood was
- beyond repair. If I'm right, the doctor was in the military, and the
- hospital may have been Trippler (Hawaii). Can anyone confirm this
- incident, or is this just another urban legend? If it is true, whatever
- became of him/her? What happened to the doctor?
