"The Internet is my hero"
posted at 2:44 PM

Here's an awesome story about a woman whose life was saved because she happened to have a popular webcam set up in her horse stables.

People from Germany, the United Kingdom, France -- all over the world had phoned the Charlotte Rescue Squad. When the emergency services arrived 45 minutes later, they were very confused about why they had received calls from all over the world about me.

I don't know what would have happened if it wasn't for the Web cam. I damaged my knee and my leg very badly. My temperature had dropped and I was in body shock by the time help arrived.
When I read the story, I have to admit that I wondered if she would have been in danger if she'd checked the webcam herself before going out to the stable...
