Paula Saletnik, aka "Pistol Packin’ Paula", was recently involved in an automobile accident, from which she sustained very serious bodily injury. During the evening of Jan. 10th, Paula struck a deer while driving on a county highway near her home in Texas. As she swerved to miss the animal, her truck rolled countless times & was thrown from the vehicle through the driver side window. Paula’s diagnosed injuries included a broken sternum and pelvis {both sides, front & back}, cracked ribs & fractures to 3 vertebrae. A surgical procedure was performed on Jan. 15th, with several permanent pins implanted. Her Doctors expect a full recovery, however, this will take several months or years of therapy & determination. Paula’s tough Cowgirl Spirit is intact & she WILL twirl her guns & ride her horse again! After her hospital stay, Paula has left the hospital & is staying with friends for the next several months, who will assist her in her therapy & recovery.
