Although she heard David Phung's voice during the rescue, Brouillette never saw her rescuer's face before their reunion Monday at a Denham Springs home where she is temporarily staying. "I know I don't know you, but I love you," Brouillette, 53, said as she hugged and thanked the man she called her "angel" and "savior." "It was nothing," Phung, 27, replied before Brouillete introduced him to Sassy, the poodle mix he also saved. A Red Cross volunteer who befriended Brouillette at a shelter arranged Monday's meeting. Brouillette lost her trailer home and all of her belongings in the flooding. Phung brought her a load of supplies, including dog food

The article said she had just gotten out of the hospital that morning after treatment for a kidney issue.

mehh. Probably just unsubstantiated rumors. Phung did what a hero does. That's all that matters.

It was stolen and she did everything she could to die in that car that wasn't hers.

Are y'all thinking about the wreck on I-10 between a stolen car and a tanker truck? It had I-10 closed most of that day.

He did an interview on Culotta & The Prince one morning not long after this went down. Seems like a humble guy, just glad that he could be there to help. Said the rest of the details didn't really matter.
