The 14-year-old Pakistani teenager activist
Malala Yousafzai undergoing treatment in a British hospital continues to
make good progress, doctors attending her said.
Dr David Rosser,
the medical director of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham in a
statement last night said that the team of specialists from hospitals
had been "impressed with her strength and resilience."
Her
condition on Monday afternoon was described as "stable" and her response
to treatment so far indicated that she could make a good recovery from
her injuries.
Messages of support and offers of financial
assistance for Malala have been flooding in to the hospital. A message
board has been set up on the Trust's website to allow well-wishers to
leave their messages of support.
The teenager schoolgirl was
shot last Tuesday in the head by a Taliban gunman for her campaign
supporting girls' education. Malala was flown to the Queen Elizabeth
Hospital in an air ambulance from Pakistan on Monday evening for
treatment.
