Shark attacks teen off Texas coast

This article talks about a 14 year- old Lydia Pualk a North Carolina girl who have been attacked by a 5 feet long shark, at the time she was with her family swimming, she was seriously injured and was immediately taken to a Medical Branch, there she was treated by Dr. Kelly Carmichael. Later after the surgery Lydia woke up and her vitals signs are better. According from Sheriff's office said that the shark was feeding at the time when Lydia was too close to it.

I was surprised by the attack when I read this article, I didn't expected that sharks attack too close to shores, she was lucky to survive from a 5 feet long shark especially in the Texas coast. The life guards are responsible for this incident; the shark is not to be blamed. As for the surgery it sounds more painful for this poor girl, I wish her all the luck. In the future I'll think twice before entering the water.
