Tumbler Ridge shooting survivor Maya Gebala is moving quite a bit on her left side, but not on her right, according to her mom.

Maya, 12, is credited with trying to lock a library door within Tumbler Ridge Secondary as the killer approached. The door lock, however, was broken. Five people died inside the library and another person in a stairwell.
Maya hid under a desk but was shot three times. One bullet grazed her cheek and ear, while the second and third bullets hit her in the head and neck.
Edmonds said Maya’s eyes are not reacting to light, suggesting she may not be able to see.
There’s significant damage to the left side of her brain, “where the bullet entered and exited, it tore right through,” Edmonds wrote.
“Because of the damage and swelling surrounding it, it is hard to say how much response and deliberate function she will be able to regain. However, we are hopeful. She has been cleared for a feeding tube and is (thankfully) not considered to pass in the immediate future.

What a brave girl, trying to lock the door that could have saved other children from being shot.
