Bang a gong, indeed.
A Texas patient who finished her radiation treatment for breast cancer got to ring the hospital's "cancer-free" celebration bell Monday. But Darla Jaye was so excited, she broke the bell, KRIV reported.
The Houston-based Harris Health System tweeted a video of Jaye clanging the traditional bell, including the moment when the strap flew off.
"I broke the bell," Jaye said in the video.
By the way, the bell has been fixed, hospital officials tweeted.
