The Memorable Case of Mr. Whippy

Some people form an odd attachment to things that have caused them pain; for Keely, it was her cyst. Even after her surgery, she couldn’t stop thinking about it. The image of the cyst lingered in her mind, resembling a swirly scoop of ice cream. In a light-hearted moment, Keely decided to name it ‘Mr. Whippy.’

Mr. Whippy made Keely a memorable patient in the hospital. It’s not every day a woman appears to ‘give birth’ to a sixty-pound cyst. Despite the ordeal, Keely found humor in the situation, which helped her cope and move forward. Her unique experience and attitude left a lasting impression on everyone involved in her care.
