Its been a pretty cruddy couple of days.

Yesterday I woke up at 4:30am with a horrible pain in my lower abdomen. I called and made a Dr appointment and was able to be seen that same day. They gave me a complete physical and couldnt find anything wrong. My Dr said she thinks its a cycst on my ovary. Great. I have an ultrasound this afternoon. Its so uncomfortable to move because it hurts so bad.

Then this morning on my way to work I hit a deer. I feel horrible. My cars is smashed to bits, which is fine. Insurance will cover it. I just feel so bad for the deer. I'm a huge animal lover and always have been. I got out of my car and looked around and the deer was in the ditch. He lifted his head and looked at me with these big brown eyes. He tried to get up to run away but his front legs were broken. I lost it. I started crying and telling him I was sorry. I cant believe I did that to him. I didnt even see him until I hit him with my car. I called 911. She said if my car was drivable I could drive home since I was so close. My car was drivable. Im not sure how, but it was. Through my blubbering tears, I made the dispatcher on the other end promise me to get someone out there as soon as possible to help the deer and put him out of his misery. She promised she would. I just cant believe it. I dont even kill bugs in our house. I catch them in a jar and let them go free outside.

As I was driving away I was praying to God to perform a miracle and heal the deer so he could get up and run away.

I drove back home and was greeted at the front door by one of my dogs, Gary. He had wrapping paper stuck to his lip. Apparently he thought the present under the tree were for him and was trying to get a sneak peek. I just picked him up and gave him a hug.

My heart is broken :(

I am so sorry about your accident. I would be so emotional. A cat last fall rang out in front of my car and I heard it hit under my car.My heart sank I pulled over the car.  I did the same thing as you though my tears I apologized as I pulled her off the road by her tail (the head was all bloody) and I did NOT want anyone else to hit her over and over again. :(  That was a really bad nite.

You did the best you could for the deer and that Is all you could have done.
