Who is taking care of us?

This morning, my FIL was trampled by out breeding bull here on the farm.FIL is going to be okay, he has 3 cracked ribs and a large bruise on his leg, but he will recover with time and rest. The bull however will recover in our freezer.
We had to call an ambulance for my FIL. Must to his dismay, he had to be taken out on a stretcher. When the medic arrived, he came to the door and was greeted by MIL. He asked her what happened, and she said, " my husband was trampled by a bull." the medic stopped dead in his tracks and said," is the bull in the house?" REALLY. WOW!! He is suppose to take of someone that could be in grave danger? Luckily, my father was working at the firehouse today so, he provided common sense direction.
I proceeded to call my dad and told him to make the local ambulance crew aware, that around these parts, we have barns for our animals. We don't let any of the cows in the house, no not even the bull.
