On May 10- 2008- 15-year-old Falicity Wishkeno was taking a shower at her home in the Vallencia community in western Shawnee county KS..
A thunderstorm was in progress at the time and while Falicity was showering- lightning struck a tree outside.
The electricity surged down the tree to it's roots and found it's way to the home's plumbing and up to the bathroom and the metal tub Falicity was showering in.
The bolt knocked her down- causing trouble breathing and pain throughout her body.
Falicity is okay now- and she's training to become a volunteer firefighter in Shawnee County Fire District Number 4 because of that incident- according to this story in Sunday's TOPEKA (KS) CAPITAL-JOURNAL.
