Title: Pea Plant growing in US man's lung

Remember being told when you were a kid that if you swallowed any of the seeds inside an apple, the fruit would start growing in your stomach?

 And then learning later that it was all a joke? Well…turns out that might not be so far from impossible

The Boston Herald reports that a pea was discovered sprouting in the windpipe of Ron Sveden, 75-year-old man from Massachusetts. Physicians first thought Sveden was suffering from a cancerous tumor. Tested samples from a biopsy indicated that the spot seen on an X-ray was a plant and not a tumor. The pea plant was removed with surgery by doctors at Cape Cod Hospital.

A month earlier the 75-year old lifelong smoker began feeling fatigue, loss of appetite and was coughing more.  He had been hospitalized for 10 days before a lung biopsy discovered what was causing his symptoms.
Sveden said his health improved once the plant was removed.

"Thankfully it's all over," he said.

"Now I'm just waiting for a call from the Jolly Green Giant," Sveden joked. :happy:
