A runaway rodeo bull injured a woman but ultimately saved her life.
Paige King said she was injured after a bull got loose while attending the Redding Rodeo in the summer.
“I didn’t know what was going on exactly, it kind of took me a second, and then my boyfriend picked me up, and I was like, ‘Oh, there’s a bull here,’” King said.“The bull jumped the fence, but thankfully the bull exited out of the gate,” King’s father, Erick Mattson, said. “We brought her to the emergency room, and they noticed a lump on her neck through a CT scan. The doctor said to get that checked out,” Mattson said.“I was stunned. Finding out that one of your kids might have cancer. It kind of takes you back. It gives you chills,” Mattson said.
“We called Bob [Tallman], and he told us to call a doctor in Houston,” Mattson said. “We explained the situation and contacted the MD Anderson Cancer Center.”
