Melinda Crozier was curling her hair on Sept. 3 with the gold-plated curling iron her best friend gave her when the world went black. Her daughter, Lauren, 15, was in the adjacent room of their of Maple home when she heard a thud, followed by the family dog barking.
When Lauren opened her bedroom door, she saw her mom on the bathroom floor with the curling iron on her face and their Labrador-collie mix, Kona, lying on her mom, pawing at her and whimpering. Lauren said she initially thought her brother, Jared, 12, was making the ruckus.
