No Good, Terrible, Very Horrible Day...

This morning as Hy and Lily were starting the truck, like they usually do, a woman came careening down the street in her "beater". In fact she was going soo fast that she didn't see my puppy. Needless to say, I almost hurt her.

We rushed Lily over to our Vets office and had them take a look at her. Fortionately for Lily, us, and the driver (GRRR) there were NO BROKEN BONES. Only some very large cuts and bruises. They stitched her on up and put drainage tubes in her back legs. They drugged her good and let us take her home, where she belongs.

They made us have one of those Elizibethian collars at first, but since she was so out of it....we didnt see the point. So for now, we are just focusing on giving her all the love she could need and letting her heal in her own time.

Lily is having a hard time walking right now so we brought her bed downstairs and Hy will be taking the first shift of sleeping on the couch.

Can I just remind people to be more attentive when they drive and to obey all posted speed limits, even IF they do seem tedious. People and Animals deserve it.

There are some pictures and they are graphic.

Just getting home from the vet hospital:



Poor Baby!!
