Western Diamond Back Snake Bite

[padiente]

I must admit, I have a high tolerance for pain, but that comes from years of clumsimess, hence self inflicted pain. I don't need more things around me that I can hurt myself with. Its just asking for trouble. Why, just today, I fell flat on my face at work because, as I was uncrossing my legs getting off my stool, the heel of my left stilletto caught the lip of my right foot and to avoid poking a hole through my foot by stepping down I decided to fall. Since my feet were basically stuck on oneanother and I had something in my hands I fell flat on my face. 10 minutes later I knocked a glass of water all over my counter, and a couple of weeks ago I hit my head on a metal corner hard enough to give me head ache for 2 days. I have been to the emergency room twice since late february. I am constanly covered with bruises and scrapes, so a pet that could really hurt me is not an option. hahaha

sounds like maybe you should steer clear of stillettos and corners. and water. have you considered the padded room option?

[padiente]

yes, I have and have even found a way for it to be astetically pleasing . The funny thing is, this is the first time I have ever tripped in spiked heels. I turn my ankles everytime I wear my low wedge heels so i opt for the high scray ones, that the rest of the world has problems with. How odd is that

Without some kind of proof, your claim is just a bit hard to swallow. I'm not saying that its false, but tongs.com has a pretty good reputation in the reptile community and i doubt that they would put something up that was false.

oh,i guess that thread was wrong.just forget what i said. :lol:

I assure you that the photos are real. Some of them are 25 yrs old and where taken after the sweetwater texas round ups. I have been dealing with tongs.com for many years and have been involved with several of thier photos. Go to SHHS and click on the bite photos and you will see some of the same graphic stuff. It's reality of owning venomous and what it can do to you.

they dont look to realistic to me but who am i to say...
