Victim of Las Vegas shooting wakes up from coma after bullet struck her forehead

Tina Frost, 27, woke from a coma on Friday to take her first steps since sustaining a bullet to the forehead from being shot by Stephen Paddock on the Oct. 1 mass shooting in Las Vegas.

“She opens her left eye just a lil and looks all around the room at us, taps her feet whenever music is playing,” Frost’s mother, Mary Watson Moreland, said in a statement posted on their GoFundMe page.

Frost was hit by one bullet at the Route 91 Harvest Festival, which caused not only a two-week coma at Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center in Las Vegas but also the loss of her right eye.

“She’s obviously anxious to get her wobble back on,” Moreland added. “We are so proud of our Tina, and everyone is amazed at every single movement she makes.”

The Maryland woman has received an outstanding show of support from the public after surviving the near-death incident. A GoFundMe was set up for Frost by a family friend and it would go on to raise a shocking $530,065 in donations -- it surpassed their original goal of $50,000 goal by a longshot.

According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Frost will receive a donated skull implant from a medical supply company in Florida to reconstruct her forehead and the area surrounding her affected eye.

“The doctors have been talking about Tina’s next steps and are discussing other hospitals that will have all the specialists she’ll need during her long road to recovery,” her mother wrote.

So far, Frost has been able to respond to basic commands, flashing a thumbs-up to her boyfriend and more recently breathing without the use of a ventilator, her mother confirmed.

Frost has a long road to recovery from the injuries she suffered that fateful night, but also from the tradegy that caused them.
