Just when you think you've seen enough of your local A&E waiting room I've been back in it......

So Hugo and I went to the chemist on weds to collect my script. As I parked up the scooter ( i hasnt even got off it) 2 Patterdales tied up at some railings broke free and attacked Hugo. Chaos ensued with me ending up on the floor in the middle of it all.

Hugo got rushed off to our vet by my neighbours husband and has superficial wounds to his back leg and privates .He also has a wound on his right elbow which has required staples. He goes today for a wound check.

The lady from the chemist took me and my neighbours wife to A&E as the wait for an ambulance was too long.I have puncture wounds to my left hand and nose, bruising with partial bite mark to my right leg (yes the one in the boot) ,bruising to my knees and 5 stitches in my face where my lip got ripped open.

We are both on antibiotics and I've had tetanus so that means I'm off my dmards again after just re starting them . I don't want to leave the house as I'm embarrassed by the way I look...I look like a car crash with my leg in a boot and stitches in my face

Can life throw anything else at me ? 🤨😣😩

Aaaahhh. I’m so sorry. Sounds like you really have been in the wars. What a shock it must have been. Just spoil yourself & Hugo. I always love getting some sweet treats if i’m feeling low. (Put something nice in your mouth!) 🤣 (Something cool n refreshing). Like a magnum. Their salted caramel ones are just amazing. Then bung a comedy on. Just don’t smile too much. Hope you both feel better soon. X

Ps.

Sorry to ask. But is Hugo your partner or your lovely dog? Only when i saw he’d hurt his ‘privates’ i wasn’t sure! 🙀

Hugo is my dog . I can only manage stuff through a straw due to swelling but my neighbour went shopping and got the stuff for lactose free smoothies x

Such a dreadful thing to happen lovely. It is so shocking when a much loved dog is attacked for no reason and then to have been bitten badly too on top of everything that you have gone through this year is soul destroying.

You are such a strong, capable lady but everyone has limits. Be kind to yourself now and don’t push yourself.

Hive Cwtches to you and the gorgeous Hugo xxx❤️🐾🐾
