A 74-year-old woman believed to have died while in hospice care was found to be breathing after being transported to a funeral home, authorities in Nebraska said Monday.

The woman had been transported from a nursing home, where she had been declared dead at around 9:44 a.m. local time, to the Butherus-Maser & Love Funeral Home in Lincoln on Monday morning, according to the Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office.

Authorities responded to the funeral home after an employee noticed the woman was breathing and “instantly called 911” at approximately 11:44 a.m., according to Lancaster County Chief Deputy Ben Houchin.

    I think this was the first version of that I heard:

    My horse broke his leg. I called the vet and he said “Not much I can do. You’re gonna have to shoot 'em.”

    I don’t know why.

    But if he don’t start getting better soon I’ma have to shoot 'em again.
