Woman in A&E after her pet snake got stuck in her ear's flesh tunnel


When sitting in A&E for hours on end, you’ll probably see a few characters. Whether that be Betty screaming in reception with a bad toe, or Geoff missing his appointment because he was too busy browsing the vending machine. But what you’re less likely to see is a woman with a python stuck in her earlobe… But that is exactly what happened last week, when Ashley Glawe walked into a hospital in Portland, Oregon, with Bart the snake. The reptile-lover found herself in a bit of trouble after the Ball Python decided that her gauged earlobe would be a great slithering route. Initially, she said the moment was funny. However Bart soon became wedged – after clearly, he ate too many mice. While waiting for a doctor to remove the snake, Ashley uploaded a photo to Facebook. The post has now been shared more than 500 times. Luckily for Ashley, doctors were pretty quick at coming up with a solution. She added: ‘They numbed up my ear and used string to pull and stretch it out more so that they could get him out without hurting him.’ Well, that’s OK then. | Metro News
