    She was brave and as scared as she was she really worked smart to get the horses out, she seemed to manage the process the best way possible!

    Very brave, indeed. It takes a lot of guts to run into a burning building, and to keep to presence of mind to get them out quickly while under such incredible pressure is laudable in the extreme. I hope she is okay and the injured horse heals well.
