This is news that everyone has been keeping up with. As we all know, 15 year old Malala who is a Pakastani girl, was shot for standing up for what she believes in. This is a girl who loves education so much that she would do anything to ensure she is in school. However, the Taliban believes women should not be educated, and this is what led to Malala being shot. Six days after she was shot, she was flown to a hospital in Britain where they treated her injuries. Recently, Malala's family has shown up at the hospital. He expressed his gratitude to both the British and Pakistani government for helping his daughter. The father is proud of his daughter and stands by her decision, but he was really afraid he would have to plan his daughter's funeral. He is happy that his daughter survived and very proud of her for standing up for her beliefs.
In this article you can read what these last few days have been like for Malala's family and how they are coping with the situation.
