JAHEEM Rudder, the 18-month-old toddler who was shot multiple times on Father’s Day, has since been discharged from the hospital and is making a speedy recovery.
The mother of the boy, Mawanza Gill, recently disclosed that her son is doing well, and is eating and drinking normally.
She noted, however, that the child, who was shot six times about the body — five times in the abdomen and once in the leg — is still in a bit of pain, and as a result of this, he is creeping instead of walking.
She stated that there is movement in his leg and he will eventually walk on his own since he is a fighter.
She praised the treatment the child received at the hospital, and expressed gratitude in particular to the nurses and doctors at the Intensive Care Unit and the Paediatric Ward, emphasising that the medical professionals did a magnificent job on her son.
The mother, who was also shot seven times in her legs, is doing fairly all right but she is still experiencing some amount of pain in her legs.
The two were hospitalised following the attack by gunmen at their Nandy Park home when former murder accused, Travis Rudder, Snr. was killed on Father’s Day.
