Petunia & Dre by Allison Garwood for December 07, 2023

Is that even safe?

What a dick head!

WHY DON’T MEDICAL PEOPLE LISTEN TO THE PATIENTS?? They’re the ones who know when something is Wrong. I so feel for you! :(

Yow! This one hurts just to read.

I hope that sharing this experience will be at least as healing for Allison as whatever the medical folks do. We are reminded that we usually don’t know what goes on in others’ lives and should default to compassion.

Ochie!!!

Yikes! the Phrase, kill me now, springs to mind.

Ohh!! My eyes are watering in empathy. “Sniff!” ◑﹏◐,

Couldn’t they give you some Lydocaine/Anesthetic …….oh right, that spoils their fun !

I’m glad this is over for you.

I feel sick just looking at it. 10 hours… terrible!

You survived AND you are writing and drawing about it. You are stronger than you think. Sharing this sort of thing takes courage.

At that point I think I’d ask for whoever is second best. They might try harder.
