Friday, 16 August 2013




(CNN) - Nearly four months after 8-year-old Martin Richard was killed in the Boston Marathon bombings, his family had something to celebrate.

Jane Richard, Martin's 7-year-old sister, was discharged from the hospital a few weeks ago.

Jane lost a leg in the bombings, but the family says she has learned to walk with a prosthetic leg.



The 7-year-old was in hospitals for three months after the bombing and underwent hundreds of hours of physical therapy.

Her family calls her "an incredible source of inspiration."

Since Jane's release, the Richard family has returned to their home for the first time since the marathon.
