Malala Yousafzai Recovering, Able To Stand

The hospital said that although she is out of her coma and is now able to stand with assistance and communicate by writing, she is still ill and requires more treatment before she is fully recovered.
Gayle Lemmon, deputy director of the Women and Policy program of the Council on Foreign Relations, said of Malala, “You may able to shoot a 15-year-old girl but you can't kill an idea, and I think she has become only more powerful, a symbol of the fight to go to school every day.”
