Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description
Leah Stewart, a 35-year-old deputy principal at Hurstville Adventist School, remains in critical condition after being attacked by a great white shark while swimming at Coogee Beach on Saturday. The mother of one has had her left arm amputated and remains on life support at St Vincent's Hospital, with more surgeries required. More than $300,000 has been raised within 24 hours to support her recovery, while medical staff appeal for blood donations and hero lifeguard Charlie Verco, who pulled her from the shark's jaws, awaits her recovery.
