Home Again & Stuffie Stan's Accident.....!!!

Hi Everybody!!! Lacie here! As usual! We're home now from Hilton Head....but I have to fill ya in on the accident Stuffie Stan had on our last day there.....Asta's friend Petey had left a comment on our chatbox to go and visit a store that a friend of his mom owns. Stuffie Stan climbed on his trusty bicycle and off he went!

He found the store nestled in a lovely area with restaurants, cafes, and JEWELRY STORES (caps for the girls!). Feelin' a bit dry from the short bike ride he sat here and ordered an iced coffee.

Then he stopped to smell the flowers........

Here is the picture of the Petey's friend's store!!! 'Cept it wasn't open yet...that was unfortunate cuz I hear they have some of the latest fashions! Not to mention some 'dorable shoes I saw by peakin' in the window!!!

Now Petey DID mention that there was a GATOR that lives by this store...and that he tries to lure you over to him.

Now Stuffie Stan was feelin' pretty brave from his last heroic Gator experience........

Sometimes bravery equals stoopidity.......

Stuffie Stan....THAT IS NOT A GOOD IDEA!!!!! The following pix are a little too graphic for younger pups or kitties.....(cover ur eyes, GirlGirl!!)


OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank Dog, someone called 911....it was a terrible fight...with the Gator sustainin' severe Dale- inflicted wounds.

And Stuffie Stan is severely injured! His hindlegs sorta look like chopped liver...um wait...I am a nursing student here...the Stuffed Dale is suffering from severe lacerations...deep bites to his lower extremities requiring multiple stitches....he also has numerous abrasions from being dragged on the concrete. He has multiple wounds to his back, snoot and poor little Stuffie nose.

I'm hoping all nurses and nurse wannabes could come and help with some shifts. He needs wet to dry dressings on the deep lacerations with some iodiform gauze packing. Chicken broth needs to be spooned every 30 minutes to keep him hydrated. He needs to be turned every two hours to prevent bedsores....(the big word is Di Cube It Tie....) We're keeping him sedated to help him heel oops heal!! There was still a bottle of Absinthe here from Seymour, so Scruffy has been spoonin' him that, but I don't think Asta or Agatha, my nursing instructors would approve. Oh my...I hope they can come. My class hasn't read the chapter in my nursing book on Care of the Male Dale Stuffie Following a Gator Attack...

I propped him up here so he could take some nootrition, but he is very weak. It was a long car ride home with him!

Other than a few misadventures such as this, it was a FAB week!!!!

Anyone interested in helpin' to nurse Stuffie Stan, let me know...these 24 hour shifts are killin' me, and my brother's aren't much help....to say the least!

Barkin' at ya!!!
