Khoury was in the kitchen, petting her cousin’s 8-year-old blue nose pit bull named Diesel, whom she had previously met and considered well-behaved, when the dog suddenly attacked her. She tried to stay calm and went to the hospital right away. But despite their efforts, the surgeons could not fix her injured upper lip.
She mentioned pulling out her phone just to check her appearance, and claimed she ’didn’t know’ her phone took a picture until later. “I knew it was bad but I didn’t know how bad it was,” she said. “It’s crazy because this photo has helped my doctor tremendously because he was able to see the original bite marks from the attack and kind of map out what happened.”
