True Story
Woman swallows 78 items
of cutlery
A woman obsessed
with swallowing spoons and forks was forced to have an operation after she ate
an entire canteen of cutlery.
Surgeons in Rotterdam, Holland,
removed 78 different items of cutlery from Margaret Daalmans's stomach after she
came to hospital complaining of stomach pains.
An astonishing X-ray taken
before the operation showed dozens of forks and spoons trapped inside the
52-year-old patient.
"She seems to have been
suffering from some sort of obsession and every time she sat down for a meal she
would ignore the food and eat the cutlery," said one medic.
Daalmans works as a secretary in
a local estate agents and told doctors: "I don't know why but I felt an urge to
eat the silverware, I could not help myself."
- Maybe she has an iron deficiency.
- She can cut her meat after she swallows instead of before, which should
save time.
- Not her fault. She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth.
- She met a fork in the road, and swallowed it!!
- She is a silver-tongue devil.
- I can’t even get lima beans down.
- I once swallowed a quarter, poop out 2 dimes and a nickel.
- Not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
- Making me hungry, that metal grill brush looks tasty.
