You know, I have dealt with some pretty gross things in my life.
I worked at a public pool; I worked at a veterinary clinic. I’ve cleaned up everything that gets excreted from both kids and pets. I’ve assisted with some pretty intense animal surgeries (removing tumours, cleaning horrific abscesses). I’ve helped people whose toes and fingers were twisted and nearly completely detached.
And, honestly and truly, I have done all those things with ease, only once feeling like I was going to vomit and needed to take a break (…which for those of you wondering was during a truly horrific abscess surgery on a cat's face).
Today, however, officially achieved the title for the most horribly revolting thing I have ever had to do in my life!!
Because, today, when I got home from the forest…
… the rat…
…was behind my fridge…
…dead…
…and with the heat and humidity here, it was already beginning to decompose…
It took me about an hour to muster the strength to remove it.
It took me about 30 minutes to actually get it out of the house.
I almost cried 3 times by this point.
I freaked out A LOT.
It took me another 30 minutes to disinfect the kitchen with a rag on a stick.
I almost cried a 4th time at this point.
Ya, WORST MOMENT OF MY LIFE!!
