sucking chest wounds

Gnomi impaled herself on something this morning out in the fields. She yelped and came running back and lay down at my feet. She collapsed just as I got near the vet's office. I am always amazed at what they can do sticking in tubes and drugs and outside doctor healing and inside body healing. Thank you to the veterinarian. I was planning on doing some tattooos on my own body today and Gnomi got tattooed and I got her blood all over me. I might still do the tattoos.

oh Gnomi, get well soon sweet girl.
I hope you're ok too, farland. It must have been really distressing.

The kids and I wish Gnomi a full and speedy recovery. Our dog, Kelsey, is one of the family. And, we are his pack. Dogs teach us so much about forgiveness and unconditional love. We all send you Love and Healing. Peace, Otter
good work doc. and you're lucky you can still afford a tattoo….with the vets around here, there'd be no money left.
I do the tattoos myself at no cost. Want one? I did do some today me and Gnomi both . I'll post them later next week. Gnomi is all stabilized now and having her chest cavity aspirated every few hours and I need to drive her to another hospital tonight. I use verterinary tattoo ink the kind they use for cow's ears. A lifetime supply is 4 bucks. But there went my road trip money for passing through Buffalo next month.
sorry fish! take care of yourself and your gnomi. I hope she heals fast.
I love you. And Gnomi and Timon too. I'm so so glad you kept her with you and didn't put her in that crate. What a hard reminder to breathe.
One day you'll have to tattoo me, I think … though perhaps you already have.
the hoon and jacinta and i send much love to you and gnomi and arkos and diiko … yes, breathe … and if there is anything i can do … anything … please ask … i wish i were closer so that i could bring you guys dinner and sit with you .…
Everything we love is so fragile, isn't it?
I'm glad Gnomi is being resilient.
Reading this, and seeing the picture, made me cry and then hug everyone, the fur people and the furless ones too. And made all the petty annoyances that have been turning my life upside down this past week go sit quietly in the background where they belong..
Thank you everyone. I was trying so hard not to cry watching her trying to stay conscious and find some air. What a will to survive. Gnomi literally bounced back. Both man and nature are incredible and zaadzsters the connecters.
