Sao Paulo, Brazil - A Brazilian woman who was shot six times in the head after an altercation with her ex-husband was out of the hospital and talking to the media on Saturday.

"I know this was a miracle," 21-year-old housewife Patricia Goncalves Pereira told Globo TV. "Now I just want to extract the bullets and live my life."

Pereira was shot on Friday in the small city of Monte Claros, about 900 kilometres north of Sao Paulo, after quarrelling with her former husband, who was reportedly upset because she refused to get back together with him. She was also shot once in the hand.

Doctors could not explain why the .32-caliber bullets did not penetrate Pereira's skull and didn't even need to be extracted immediately.

"I can't explain how something like this happened," surgeon Adriano Teixeira said, adding that the bullets were lodged under the woman's scalp.

The ex-husband was still at large.

She may have had a hat on or used extra hair spray. These here thinks may have help her and saved her life. Glad she lived.

Or maybe she had a bible in her hat and it helped deflect bullets.

Reminds me of that sexist joke about "What do you do when you see a woman staggering in the front yard?"

Answer: "Shoot her again."

Ok, bad taste.........first time I heard it a woman told me but switched the gender in the joke.....can really be told by either sex....

Now you can flame me.
