    OK update
    Hubby was the one that called and told me. Used our nieces nick name, not her full name.
    My stomach has been in knots and I now have a blistering headache. I call another family member to see if they had gotten any details.
    Well un known to me the family had gotten a new dog. Mind you hubby has not gotten over our dogs AT ALL They named their new dog Bella, which is what we have always called our niece. He told me this happened to Bella with such panic and heart break in his voice, I not knowing they had this dog thought it was our niece.
    So , unfortunately their beloved pet is in bad shape and THANK GOD OUR NIECE IS SAFE. Thank you for the prayers for our pets are family and this is still horrific but not devistatingly so.

    Oh been a day...
    Last night I hit bathroom at 10: 45 I glance out the windows to see highbeams shooting up the road. The vehical is down near our lower drive on wrong side of road. I watch for a half hour and it never moves. This road is pretty busy. I'm wondering if they are moving another downed tree or shoveling a drive. Then go back to bed. Tell hubby about it and suggested he look around as he goes to work. He calls and says should have called cops...looks like a possible drunk driver for the car is on the wrong side of road completely buried in the ditch. That explains the high beams that never moved...At least an ambulance wasn't needed, or we slept through it....HhhmmmFriday the 13th, I'm staying in the house

    OMG!
    They sent me pics.
    They completely, down to the jaw bone, ripped the lower part of her face off. It's a horror show and I can't believe she survived that attack
    I don't know how to get pics outc of text, though I'm pretty sure no one would want to stomach them.
    I thank God it was their dog and not their daughter.

    It was the best job ever while it was going but they lied about long term cost. Sad things is I would do it again, the places I got paid to experience, but the loss of cartilage is what it is. I am just pissed they lied to us about the nomex and the steroids in the MREs
