Christy Carlson Romano recently shared a harrowing experience on her social media. The former Disney Channel star was enjoying a birthday celebration for her husband in Texas. It was supposed to be a fun day out, shooting clay pigeons, but things took a sudden and unexpected turn.

The couple was at a shooting range, a popular activity in Texas. Suddenly, an errant bullet from another group shot Romano in the face. The bullet missed her eye by a fraction of an inch, lodging itself behind her eye. She described the experience as "not fun, " and the video clip showed her with a bloodied eye. The injury left her with a gash and bruising. The fragment is too risky to remove surgically, so it remains in her face. But Romano is lucky to have escaped with minimal vision problems.

Romano expressed her gratitude to the first responders who assisted her. She emphasized the importance of cherishing every moment, as life can change in an instant. She also shared a message of love for her family and friends, highlighting the importance of embracing loved ones.

Her husband, Brendan Rooney, was thankful that Romano was alive. He described her as a strong and brave woman. He also shared her video on his own social media, encouraging others to cherish their loved ones.

The incident serves as a reminder to always be cautious when handling firearms. It's crucial to ensure safety measures are in place to prevent accidents. Safety should always be the top priority, especially in environments like shooting ranges.

The couple has two children together, and Rooney expressed his gratitude for Romano's role as their mother. The incident could have easily taken a tragic turn, but Romano's experience has become a lesson in cherishing life and being cautious.
