Malala News

Malala Yousafzai, the 14-year-old Pakistani girl shot by a Taliban thug for promoting girls' education, has been out of bed and standing with assistance. She is writing notes to convey her thoughts. Reports say she ducked when fired upon. The bullet entered her skull above her left eye, passed through her brain, broke her jaw and lodged in her shoulder blade. The bullet was removed in Pakistan. Dr David Rosser, one of the doctors treating her at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, said there are still some concerns about her smooth recovery, one of them being an infection in the tract made by the bullet. She will need a few weeks to rehabilitate before her skull is reconstructed (CLICK).
