British doctors treating a Pakistani girl who was shot by
the Taliban say she has been able to stand with help for the first time and is
also able to write.
But the medical director of Queen Elizabeth Hospital in
Birmingham where Malala Yousafzai, 15, is being treated said Friday she is not
yet out of danger. Dave Rosser said doctors are still concerned about a
possible infection from a bullet wound in her head.
British television station ITV quotes a hospital spokesman
as saying the shooting damaged Yousafzai's brain, but caused no decline in the
brain's ability to function. Rosser told reporters that Yousafzai is
"communicating very freely and writing," but is unable to speak
because of a tracheotomy tube in her throat.
Earlier this week, Malala was transferred from Pakistan to
Britain for treatment.
