Girl survives rabid bat attack at church

"[Jeanna Giese] was infected when she was bitten by a bat while at church Sept. 12 but did not seek treatment. She began showing rabies symptoms Oct. 13 and was hospitalized two days later... Doctors do not know whether Jeanna will have neurological or physical problems from the attack on her immune system. Doctors hope to release her from a rehabilitation ward by Christmas. Her parents said she stood up for the first time Tuesday and recognized people when they came into the room. John and Ann Giese, of Fond du Lac, said they did not hesitate when doctors approached them about trying the experimental treatment. They already had been told their daughter probably would die. 'Miracles can happen,' Mr. Giese said.

Ah, she must have been a blasphemer.

But am I the only one who read the title and thought some crazy person attacked her with a baseball bat?

Bats can get into any building. We had a bat get into the hospital back when I worked at the mental hospital. It was in the business office eatting food out of the trash.
