This is Sassy, my dear fur-baby. Last night, I had to take her to an emergency hospital downtown because she was bleeding from her bum. Turns out she had an anal gland burst and was highly infected. She is on meds and such for a while and has to wear this super fun cone for a while and I have to keep her sedated too due to the pain. All of this came out to be about $475 which was about two weeks of pay for me.
I really don’t want donations or anything as this is more for if she needs a recheck. I bring all of this up to advertise commissions. I don’t want to seem manipulative with showing my cat or anything but that is the reason for my situation as I have my own personal meds to buy as well. The doc wants me to get a refill for her soon as well which could be who knows how much.
My point is, if you or someone you know wants something written for Hellsing or a different fandom or if you need copyediting help I’d be happy to assist. It is $1 per 100 words so message me if you are interested.
Otherwise, I’ll keep you guys updated since you have been introduced my baby now ❤
So, pretty frequently writers screw up when they write about injuries. People are clonked over the head, pass out for hours, and wake up with just a headache… Eragon breaks his wrist and it’s just fine within days… Wounds heal with nary a scar, ever…
I’m aiming to fix that.
Here are over 100 links covering just about every facet of traumatic injuries (physical, psychological, long-term), focusing mainly on burns, concussions, fractures, and lacerations. Now you can beat up your characters properly!
Wound assessment: A huge amount of information, including what the color of the flesh indicates, different kinds of things that ooze from a wound, and so much more.
Location pain chart: Originally intended for tattoo pain, but pretty accurate for cuts
General note: Deeper=more serious. Elevate wounded limb so that gravity draws blood towards heart. Scalp wounds also bleed a lot but tend to be superficial. If it’s dirty, risk infection. If it hits the digestive system and you don’t die immediately, infection’ll probably kill you. Don’t forget the possibility of tetanus! If a wound is positioned such that movement would cause the wound to gape open (i.e. horizontally across the knee) it’s harder to keep it closed and may take longer for it to heal.
General notes: If it’s a compound fracture (bone poking through) good luck fixing it on your own. If the bone is in multiple pieces, surgery is necessary to fix it—probably can’t reduce (“set”) it from the outside. Older people heal more slowly. It’s possible for bones to “heal” crooked and cause long-term problems and joint pain. Consider damage to nearby nerves, muscle, and blood vessels.
General notes: If you pass out, even for a few seconds, it’s serious. If you have multiple concussions over a lifetime, they will be progressively more serious. Symptoms can linger for a long time.
Dislocations: Symptoms 1, 2; treatment. General notes: Repeated dislocations of same joint may lead to permanent tissue damage and may cause or be symptomatic of weakened ligaments. Docs recommend against trying to reduce (put back) dislocated joint on your own, though information about how to do it is easily found online.
