All the best to Wang Yan and her family. We are thinking of you.

Wang Yan, the 16-year-old Chinese gymnast who broke her neck after falling from the bars at last month’s national championships, is making a miraculous recovery.

She’s already said to be lifting her legs and raising her right arm and has been moved out of intensive care. “She has managed to conquer the most dangerous period,” one of her doctors said.
