Her mother Lori said the family dog, Digger, saved her daughter’s life. Kilee was burned over 45 percent of her body and spent the next 38 days in the hospital, undergoing multiple surgeries.

Today, her legs, arms, and back are covered with scars that tell an inspiring tale of courage and survival.

“I felt lucky I could have been hurt a lot worse,” Kilee said. “Both of my arms are complete skin grafts.”

She added: “I never really thought I’d want to be in a dress again. I just didn’t think I’d be comfortable in my own body,” she told Inside Edition.

But Kilee has persevered, and despite the tough recovery and scarring, she is donning a sleeveless gown for her prom.

As she posed for photos with her boyfriend, Dylan, she said: “I feel good about myself.”

Dylan, who has been by her side through the whole situation said she is “the most beautiful girl” he has ever seen.
