She is currently being treated in Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham, Britain.
In the essay written in Daily Beast, the actress wrote: "I felt compelled to share Malala's story with my children. It was difficult for them to comprehend a world where men would try to kill a child whose only crime was the desire that she and others like her be allowed to go to school."
