| 75-year-old Cyril told he is pregnant A 75-year-old Derbyshire man has received a letter from his hospital telling him he is pregnant. Chesterfield and North Derbyshire Royal Hospital wrote to Cyril Pacey saying he could not be admitted for his planned operation because of his condition. Mr Pacey wasn't expecting surgery either. The hospital has apologised. The pensioner joked: "I phoned everybody to see who the father was!" Cyril, of Bolsover in Derbyshire, was treated last year for a hereditary condition which prevents him straightening his fingers. Clerical error is thought to be behind the hospital's slip-up. Ex-railway worker Cyril told The Sun: "At least it gave me a laugh. And it could certainly be a novel way to get the waiting list down. "But to be fair, the hospital was very good to me last year. So I'm sure they would have had me in straight away if the news was true!" A hospital spokeswoman said: "We apologise. We do have blips on the computer system from time to time." 10th January 2002 |
