Hide AdNiamh recently told how she believes men who pulled the car off Amelia saved her life after the youngster was knocked down at Magowan Park in the Creggan area of the city last month.
The four-year-old underwent surgery at Altagelvin Hospital before being transferred to the intensive care unit at the Royal Belfast Hospital for Sick Children. However, doctors believe she will make a good recovery. Ms Carlin said she would be forever grateful to those who helped.
Posting the video on Facebook, Niamh wrote that Amelia wasn’t expected to walk for a few weeks yet, adding: “But she wasn’t having any of it and once again proved how strong she is...my baby walked!!”
