AI Summary

medium article 2 min

A French boy, who was thrown from the 10th floor of Tate Modern in London by Jonty Bravery in August 2019, has made significant progress in his recovery and can now run and swim limited distances despite severe injuries including brain bleeding and broken bones. Initially expected to be wheelchair-bound for life, the boy, now 12 years old, continues to improve with extensive rehabilitation sessions each week. His family plans to move soon to find a school that accommodates both academic and therapeutic needs. The next step in his recovery involves an operation early next year, which doctors predict will further enhance his mobility. A fundraising page for the boy has raised over £477,000.
