American Brooklinn Khoury (22) is a professional skateboarder and model. Just over a year ago, she experienced the nightmare during a family visit to Arizona, USA.
At the beginning of November last year, the 22-year-old visited his cousin to relax. One day they had come home after doing a couple of errands.
– Felt like bone smoke
At home in the cousin’s house, the dog Diesel, an eight-year-old pit bull, was waiting. Khoury is said to have met the dog many times before, and sat down to pet it.
– He ran straight towards my face. I was standing, while the dog was literally stuck in my lip, she says People.

– Blood everywhere
According to the 22-year-old, she immediately rose to the floor and followed the dog’s head so that her lip would not crack.
– Every time he moved, I moved after. Finally, I felt something that let go. And then something flew and hit the wall.
Reveals ugly scooter accident
When she got up, she had to take a deep breath to get to herself again, Khoury says. But suddenly she felt blood in her mouth.
– I looked down and my whole shirt was stained with blood. There was blood everywhere.
On the floor she saw a pink lump, and gradually realized that it was a piece of her lip. It was not easy to see, but in the end she recognized a small pimple on her lip she had been annoyed with earlier that day, she says
Khoury reacted quickly and wrapped her lip in a napkin before rushing to the emergency room. Still, it was too late – the doctors could not save her lip.

The entire upper lip and parts of the tip of the nose have been torn off “, the 22-year-old explains to his more than 120,000 followers.

Horror accident: – Chest pulled in
“It’s crazy how your life can change so dramatically in a second. I try to be as positive as I can around this whole situation, but I must be honest in saying that I am afraid of my future and whether I will ever be able to smile again or eat normally. This is the beginning of a long journey ».
