An 11-year-old, who was shot in the head more than a month ago, remains hospitalized but is making remarkable progress in her recovery.
Jaliah Williams, 11, is now out of intensive care, her father, Jason Williams, says.
“Jaliah is out of ICU and into the transitional care unit,” Jason said Tuesday. “She’s in stable condition, awake, she should be starting more intense rehab so that she can be discharged in August.”
On April 18, Jaliah was playing a game with her older brother in the upstairs of the family’s North College Hill home when she was shot, Cincinnati police say.
Around 10:45 p.m. that night, police say officers responded to the scene on Bising Avenue, where they found Jaliah with a gunshot wound.
She was taken to Cincinnati Children’s and underwent surgery, her family told FOX19 NOW in late April.
The Rockdale Academy student is front and center in the minds of those around her, including Rockdale Academy Principal, Dr. Jaren Finney.
“We got word from her dad that she is out of ICU. Woooo! That is amazing news,” says Dr. Finney. “Yes, I did talk to her mom today.
She told me not only is she out of ICU, but when they opened her eyes, she was able to give a thumbs up for ‘yes’ and a thumbs down for ‘no.’ She’s able to blink to confirm how she’s feeling so that is phenomenal news.”
