Injury from dog bites healed
A few years ago I visited England to see my husband’s family and attend a nephew’s wedding. My husband had passed on about four months earlier. While I was there, I stayed with an old friend in a charming village near the Lake District.
My friend and I are great animal lovers. She had a pet lurcher (a greyhound cross) that was a rescue dog with a doubtful background. She told me not to touch him as he could be somewhat unpredictable.
One day I was alone in the kitchen with him, and although I didn’t touch him, I did something that appeared to frighten him, and he attacked me. The result was wounds to my upper arm and on the back of my right hand, where the flesh had been torn back to reveal the tendons. The picture was frightening.
