In a moving blog entry published on Podium on august 24, Nobel Peace prize recipient Malala Yousafzai detailed her trauma with the "Taliban's harm" to her body. In 2012, Ehsanullah Ehsan, a former pakistan Taliban spokesman, shot her in the head for her campaign to educate girls. "I lay in a hospital bed in Boston, undergoing my sixth surgery, as doctors continued to repair the Taliban's damage to my body, three weeks ago, while US troops withdrew from Afghan and the Taliban took control,"


Malala wrote in her blog, which was published weeks after the Taliban re-entered the country. "On october 2012, a member of the Pakistani Taliban boarded my school bus and discharged one bullet into my left temple," Malala wrote in her blog about the horrible occurrence that transformed her life. My left eye, skull, and brain were all wounded by the bullet, tore my facial nerve, breaking my eardrum, and entirely damaging my jaw joints." 


"Did I scream?" you might wonder. 'Did I try to flee?' I enquire. She says, 'No.' ‘As the Talib yelled out your name, you remained still and silent, peering into his face. You gripped my hand so tightly that I was in excruciating pain for days. He spotted you and began firing. You tried to lean down while covering your face with your hands. You dropped into my lap a split second later.' Shazia and Kainat, two of my students, were shot in the hand and arm.
