'Every little development is a step forward': Runner Hannah Leonard - left in coma after being struck by car in Sicily - is meeting 'lots of little milestones' in recovery
Briefly

Hannah Leonard, a 23-year-old from Bray, Co Wicklow, moved to Sicily but was involved in a serious accident while training for the Dublin marathon. Her family quickly traveled to join her during her recovery, where a doctor referred to her as 'God's little miracle'. After multiple surgeries, she was airlifted back to Dublin and now receives specialized care at Beaumont Hospital. Her family is hopeful about her recovery, highlighting small milestones that indicate progress, while also expressing concerns over limited rehabilitation facilities in Ireland.
"Since she's been home these past six weeks, there's been lots of little milestones but they've been big to us. Things like Hannah moving her thumb when I asked her to the other evening... every little development is a step forward."
"Hannah's doctor in Sicily dubbed her 'God's little miracle' due to her survival and battle to recover since... the care in Beaumont has been phenomenal."
