She had her thumb ripped off by her horse

She has to wait 6 months before they can give her a prosthetic thumb. I know when we go visit her I'm just going to be the whole time we're there

Will she be able to knit again?

12/21/2010 10:37:22 AM

I'll pray for her.

12/21/2010 10:37:36 AM

I feel for you. My girlfriend is a vegitable and she lives in a hospital.

Probably not Not that I think she ever knitted in the first place lol. I forgot to ask if it was her right thumb or left. It's going to be a bitch doing anything if it was her right thumb

Maybe she was trying to tame Bad Horse, the thoroughbred of sin.

12/21/2010 10:40:09 AM

Another tragedy in the field of horse orthodontics. When people learn...

12/21/2010 10:44:56 AM

Was it bitten off?

That sucks. Sorry grandma

12/21/2010 10:46:58 AM

at least she wasn't run over by a reindeer

12/21/2010 10:48:59 AM

horses are like mountain lions with better PR

exactly like them

12/21/2010 10:49:24 AM

i was under the impression it was lashed in the reigns and the horse took off or something

was it bitten off?

12/21/2010 10:49:49 AM

i heard the horse cut it off with a chainsaw

12/21/2010 10:51:21 AM

^^ that's what I thought too.

TWWers have had some superhero grandmas lately.

HEY! Goddamnit you bring that thumb back right this instant or no oats for you, young mister horse!

12/21/2010 10:53:06 AM

Something doesn't add up here...


But I just can't put my finger on it.

12/21/2010 10:53:27 AM

They had to drive her to a hospital all the way in Asheville (she lives in SC) and then when they got there the doctor told her, "Well if you had any tendons left we could reattach it but you don't, so we can't." She was like, "Well dammit I could have gone to the crappy country doctor and not spent money on an ambulance if I had known that "

12/21/2010 10:55:08 AM

do they make sword cane style prosthetic thumbs?

like, you grasp the fake one with your good hand and pull out a thumb-hilted dagger?

that's be sweet

Horse, my name is wolfpackgrr's grandmother. You killed my thumb. Prepare to die.

She should make fun of the horse's nostrils. Horses are incredibly sensitive about their nose.

12/21/2010 10:59:51 AM

^^^ hahaha I will have to suggest this to her.

12/21/2010 11:04:06 AM

here's hoping it was her non-dominant hand

12/21/2010 11:25:39 AM

I know!! That's what I'm wondering now. I was too freaked out when i first heard to ask this very important question.

12/21/2010 11:26:13 AM

Non-dominant???

Who uses their thumb to masturbate??

I read that twice as "She had her thumb ripped off by her nose"

12/21/2010 1:12:54 PM

Well that will teach her to stop horsing around.

12/21/2010 1:18:11 PM

^^ That would be pretty epic.

12/21/2010 1:20:03 PM

She should get in touch with Matthew Broderick, I'm sure he could get it back for her...

12/21/2010 1:21:01 PM

Who has one thumbs and rides horses?

wolfpackgrrr's grandma.

Sorry, had to do it. In reality, that sucks. I hope she feels better.

12/21/2010 1:24:45 PM

Guess that means no more handjobs for your grandfather.......

12/21/2010 1:26:17 PM

Shit, just one digit away from being kicked out of the primate club

12/21/2010 1:26:31 PM

^^ They're divorced so he stopped getting hand jobs from her 35 years ago.

12/21/2010 1:34:20 PM

My mom is going down there as soon as the roads clear to help out. She says she's going to text me a pic

12/26/2010 5:44:13 PM

if it weren't for my horse, i wouldn't have spent that year in college
