It’s been a year and a day since Kendall Olivarez’s innocence and carefree spirit were shattered by a gunman at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas.
Kendall was shot in the arm, bullet fragments hitting other parts of her body. She’s had over a dozen surgeries, physical and emotional therapy.
Despite the difficult year, Kendall has slowly made progress with the help of an emotional support dog who's had a big impact on her life. Kendall spent the one-year mark of that tragic day out of Uvalde and in San Antonio, where a hospital had an event for the survivors. For now, she continues classes online since she's not ready to return to a classroom.
