WHAT A WEEK....

I was so looking forward to some great couponing this week...Sunday night my daughter in college who lives in Tennessee, her boyfriend called and said their Siberian Husky attacked my daughters face.  So I made arrangements for my other kids and off I went to TN.  She rescued the Husky from someone and when she got him, you could see his ribs, she has had him for about 9 months now.  He's a little food aggressive, and is quite hyper and certain actions he hunkers down..Possible he was abused.

She has 50 stitches on her face mostly in and outside of her nose, a few on her lip.  They are looking for a Husky rescue because they are afraid he may attack again and she refuses to put him down.I told my daughter if all she wanted was for me to do her laundry or see me all she had to do was call, she didn't have to have her Husky eat her face off.  Seeing her smile was well worth the 7 hour trip.....

My daughter is such a hard worker in college when she got to the hospital she was crying and they said are you in pain, she said "NO" I have a test on Tuesday!...gotta love a hard working student.
