A little while ago Mike treated a guy in the ER that had been run over by a pig.

The man was going to slaughter the pig. He shot it in the head and it had slumped to the ground. When the man went over to the front of it, the pig jumped up and rammed him, breaking the man’s tibia bone in his leg.

The pig chased the man around the room for a few minutes. The man was frantically trying to keep away from it. Finally, someone else came into the room, saw what was happening and shot the pig again. This time it died.

The man was alright except for his broken tibia.

Usually Mike treats people in car injuries, not pig injuries.

All in a day’s work.

Moral of the story:  Make sure your pig is good and dead . . .
