"You should close it. Girls should not be going to school,' he continued.

"the girls of the Red Mosque madrasa began terrorizing the streets of Islamabad.

She could not tell anyone because it could put her and her family in danger. Malala liked that name because her real name means grief stricken. "I didn't see why, as I was just a child, and who would attack a child? But some of my friends recognized incidents in it.

"Our week at the guesthouse soon ended and we went to Haripur, where one of my aunts lived. It was our fourth city in two months.

The Doctor had to remove a piece  of her skull because her brain was swelling. They put the piece of skull in her stomach to keep it safe so they could out is back. The doctor also did a procedure so Malala could breathe. Her parents were very worried so were praying. "Inside the operating room Colonel Junaid used a saw to remove an eight-to-ten-centimeter square from the upper-left part of my skull so my brain had the space to swell. He then cut into the subcutaneous tissue on the left of my stomach and placed the piece of bone inside to preserve it. Then he did a tracheotomy, as he was worried the swelling was blocking my airway. He also removed clots from my brain and the bullet from my shoulder blade. After all these procedures I was put on a ventilator. The operation took almost five hours."
