calving emergency

Occasionally when the calf is born the uterus where the calf has lived for 9 months turns wrong side out and comes out too.  Then an epidural anesthesia (low spinal) is administered so the uterus can be more easily replaced.  As a practicing veterinarian grandpa use to practice for this surgery by putting toothpaste back in the tube.
