'A long year back': A brutal dog attack took her leg but not the life she loves

The strange sounds echoed in the distance for several minutes before Heather Clark hiked past the country field and saw a woman fighting to stay alive.
A bloodied Eva Simons was fending off one mixed pit bull with her left arm and another with her right arm while a third dog was eating her leg.
The then 64-year-old was on a cycling trip in Vinton County, Ohio, when she got a flat tire. While she walked the bike back to her car on Shea Road, the three dogs made their way through a plywood barrier on their owner’s property and charged her. Simons held them off for a few minutes, but eventually, she was knocked to the ground and dragged into the field.
