The 10-year old Carthage boy who was brutally attacked by a pit bull on Saturday was back home with his family by Sunday.
Daniel Foster will have to endure re-constructive surgeries to repair damage done to his face.
Daniel's mother and his aunt say he's doing well considering the circumstances.
At home Daniel was heavily medicated and tired.
Daniel left Childrens Hospital Medical Center with tough road ahead of him.
His mother Helen described his condition.
"He's doing pretty good right now," said Foster. "So far they've got him under medication for the pain."
"Honestly, this is something out of a horror movie," said Foster.
Daniel's wounds are extensive.
"His nose mostly, and the top of his skull right here, in here," said Foster.
Police have charged Rhonda Byrd, the dog's owner, for not having the dog properly registered or insured.
"I've never been charged with nothing in my life," said Byrd. "The dog jumped the fence -- I feel it's not my fault."
Surgeons worked this weekend to repair the wounds on Daniel's face.
But he has more surgeries in front of him.
The next phase will include re-constructive surgeries that are to include stretching and moving the skin to repair the wounded areas.
