“Megan [Neal] is finally home!” reads the latest post on the Facebook group Prayers for Megan. “She was welcomed by her brother, sisters and her Granny, and lots of balloons and posters.”
Megan received physical, occupational and speech therapy at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta at Scottish Rite hospital before being released Tuesday, said her mother, Renee Smith. Megan will continue to receive outpatient and home therapy from North Georgia Pediatric Therapies, her mother said.
Smith called her daughter’s recovery “very slow moving.”
