An unflappable 12-year-old is smiling in her hospital bed just hours after she says a shark attacked her leg. Lola Pollina was wading waist-deep in the surf at Atlantique, Fire Island off the coast of New York's Long Island Wednesday when she saw a telltale fin right next to her. "I felt something in there and then it let go and I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, what has happened?’ We looked down and we saw the bite marks, the blood," she told Inside Edition. There are deep cuts on Lola's right leg.
