He survived as well and was convicted in 2005 of aggravated attempted murder with a 7-year prison sentence. Culp forgave her husband at the sentencing and said she will be waiting when he gets out of prison.
On September 22, 2009, Mrs. Culp said on an episode of Oprah, that she no longer plans to wait for her former husband after her daughter asked her, "Mom, what kind of example would you be setting for me if you went back to the man who shot your face off?"
The shotgun blast shattered her nose, cheeks, the roof of her mouth and an eye. She underwent 30 operations prior to the face transplant on December 10, 2008. Surgeon Maria Siemionow led a team of doctors in a 22-hour operation which replaced 80 percent of Culp's face with the face from another woman who had recently died.
Her nose was rebuilt and some of the disfigurement repaired in the operation.
Culp was able to breathe on her own and eat solid food following the transplant, adding "Ms. Culp’s expressions are still a bit wooden, and she remains blind, but she can talk, smile, smell and taste food again, and has learned braille. Her speech is at times difficult to understand.
