Woman makes cup of tea after being shot in head
Telegraph UK ^

Posted on 04/18/2009 11:02:16 AM PDT by Chet 99

Police and doctors hailed the survival of Tammy Sexton, 47, as miraculous after a bullet from a .38-calibre handgun struck her squarely in the forehead, passed through her skull and exited through the back of her head. She is expected to make a full recovery, while her husband shot himself dead after the attack on his wife.

But law enforcement officers in Jackson County, Mississippi, were also astonished that Mrs Sexton offered them tea when they arrived at her home after the shooting.

Sheriff Mike Byrd said: "When the officer got there she said, 'What's going on?' She was holding a rag on her head and talking. She was conscious, but she was confused about what had happened.

"She had made herself some tea and offered the officer something to drink.

"There's no way she should be alive other than a miracle from God. You just don't hear of something like this. Somebody gets shot in the head and they're dead."

But I swear I didn’t shoot her! OK, well, maybe I did - but she never found out about it.

You surely beat me to that punch line. My ex was completely empty headed.

Finally, a murder-suicide that works out for the best.

And I can't believe how many of us used to work together...
