A former Long Islander's daughter who has been in a coma since being injured in the Las Vegas concert shooting has woken up and taken her first steps.

According to a GoFundMe page set up for Tina Frost, the 27-year-old Maryland native on Friday took three steps to a chair, and three steps back to the bed, with the assistance of nurses. Frost also breathed on her own for six hours. The campaign has so far raised over $528,000 to cover her medical expenses at Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center in Las Vegas.

Frost is the daughter of Rich Frost, a 1974 Massapequa High School graduate. She was shot in the head while attending the Route 91 Harvest festival with her boyfriend, Austin Hughes. Hughes and another friend carried her about 300 yards to the street, Amy Klinger, a family friend and spokeswoman said. Referring to Hughes, Klinger added: “He was quite the hero that day.”

Fifty-eight people were killed in the shooting, as well as the shooter, Stephen Paddock. Nearly 500 people were injured.
