#imagine surviving that and being like ‘yay I’m saved’ but it’s Mormons 😵‍💫

I also read the account of a girl in Nebraska who married when she was about 17 and was living on a farm with her husband in the 1840s when he was bitten by a rabid dog. She was then trapped on the isolated homestead, heavily pregnant, alone with her violently rabies maddened dying husband. She could not escape for help until his strength failed him and he died. She had a son (survived to adulthood) and then joined a Mormon wagon train passing through, remarried a Mormon man (not as a plural wife, thank god), had five more children, divorced her husband and died in California in her 90s. I truly think her life story is the premise for a damn good revisionist western horror story.
