This is what I found this morning by the day lily bed, poor Gnorm, unconsious and missing an appendage. ACK, Who could have attacked this sweet innocent Gnome? What brutal carnage played it self out in my back yard last night? I shudder to think.
Gnorm put up a goof fight, bless him. His amputated arm was located several feet from where he fell in battle. Poor little Gnome, brave to the last. Miss Squirrel is not talking, keeping silent in fear for her own safetly no doubt but she doggedly stood guard over his arm until help arrived.
Inspite of his battle wounds Gnorm maintained his sunny disposition as he headed off to emergency surgury. There is high hopes that his arm can be reattached.
After a brief but tense surgury and a short stay in intensive care where he was lavished with much love and attention I am more than happy announce that the surgury was a success. Gnorm is almost back to himself again. He is still missing a finger and the tip of his hat is gone but on the whole he is well again
and ready to return to his spot by the day lily bed. We may never know who his attacker was but we hope they met their just reward for such a viciouse and unprovoked attack. The bastards!!
