LINLITHGOW, Scotland, May 29, 2008 (UPI via COMTEX) -- A Scottish woman said
she is glad a cow rammed its head into her stomach because the injury prompted
an examination that revealed she had cancer.
Linlithgow, Scotland, resident Sarah Kerr, 32, was in a pasture feeling stomach
pain she blamed on indigestion when a cow head-butted her in the abdomen, the
Edinburgh (Scotland) Evening News reported Wednesday.
Kerr said she was surprised to learn the stomach pain she felt prior to the blow
from the cow was caused by cervical cancer, the report said.
"If it hadn't been for that accident with the cow I don't know what would have
happened," she said.
It is reported if Kerr had waited any longer to treat the cancer, the disease
would have likely spread to a highly dangerous level.
