A trio of big-hearted doctors is helping 3-year-old Victoria Wilcher, the Mississippi girl who was mauled by her grandfather’s pitbulls and then thrust into the national spotlight when her family was accused of perpetrating a hoax at a local KFC.

A Florida doctor made Victoria a prosthetic eye, a local physician reconstructed the girl’s eyelid and a Las Vegas plastic surgeon has signed on to perform a series of operations that could continue for years.

"We are extremely optimistic about Victoria's recovery,” said Dr. Frank Stile, of Las Vegas. “We continue to track her progress as her facial bones and scars continue to heal."

Props to the volunteer doctors and prayers for the successful outcome of the procedures on the little girl. She’s an angel who has no part of whatever fraud her mother may have attempted.

Sorry about the problems for this poor girl. But that sentence reads as if the family is innocent, they are not. They lied by making false charges against an innocent company.

It wasn’t her fault so good for those docs, stepping up to help a little angel.
