[AMP-L] Aussie Mum’s Tragedy After a Small Bump Led to Amputation

[Wayne Renardson]

via New Zealand Herald:

An Aussie mum has shared her shocking story after a tiny lump on her 
hand resulted in amputation.  

Rosie-May Fisher, 32, first noticed the "soft and painless" mass in 
the middle of her left palm in 2010.  

After brushing it off as an "odd thing that appeared on my body", she 
brought it up with her doctor in an unrelated appointment two years 
later. Fisher then had an MRI, which classified the lump as 
non-suspicious, leading doctors to think it was perhaps a benign 
sebaceous cyst.
