What is the most unusual patient you’ve ever handled?

Maybe the gentleman who had an extremely embarrasing swelling (through no fault of his own) Basically, we needed a jock strap to support the problem, but couldn't find anything big enough, so had to use triangular bandages.
I appreciate the tact to use in explaining this. Very dignified thank you.
Oof I’ve got so many. Maybe the one who had ten children and over a hundred grandchildren and great grandchildren. It was impossible to get in the room and do any clinical work on them. Or maybe the guy I who gave me weird vibes, which turned out to be correct as he groped me in a lift.
Years ago when I was a nurse, a very elderly lady was an in patient for some problem (I’ve forgotten what). She had a lovely family, quite big, daughters, sons, grandkids etc.
She was a sweet lady but whenever she was alone with a female nurse she would grab their breasts and squeeze them and make burbling noise like when you tickle a baby.
