Accident and Emergency Department

This morning the A&E Department was extremely busy.

Many patients had arrived, they must have had an amazing weekend!

First they were sent to Triage.

It was decided that Heffalump was the number one priority. He could have gone into shock at any moment as his left arm was nowhere near his body!

Quite frankly we were in shock just looking at the state of him.

He also had cuts under his chin that required a few stitches.


Sidney spider must have been walking on some prickly bushes as his legs were cut and oozing a horrible white substance.


Phil also had cuts and abrasions under his neck but did not want a photo taken of his wounds .
We rather think he was concerned he would end up as a dead bird and he and the photos would be used for medical research.


First into surgery was Heffalump.
The skill required to rejoin an arm takes years of training.
The surgeon carefully rejoined his soft felt like skin and poked in a little more stuffing for good measure.
He was then sent to the recovery ward where he enthusiastically took his medicine.


Next on the table was Sidney.
He opted for local anasthaesia but it proved challenging to the medical team when he kept kicking his legs because he was so ticklish. In the end it took a huge team to keep him still.

Here he is in Post Operative care once again standing on his own 8 legs, albeit a little wobbly.


We would like to thank our dedicated team of nurses and doctors for taking such good care of our stuffies.

We now feel it is our duty to go and play with them.


Well they need cheering up......don't they?
