Christine Melville, the seven-year-old who was hit by minibus transporting school children, has had a successful operation to graft skin from her upper left leg to cover the wound on her left instep.
According to the child’s mother the surgery, which was done on Friday, was a success and Melville is recovering. Charges have still not been brought against the woman who hit Melville and the child’s mother is upset about this.
Melville, a student of St Paul’s Primary was waiting at the pedestrian crossing on the Plaisance Public Road on March 7 when she was hit by the bus which was said to be transporting school children.
