The youngster suffered life-changing injuries and has already underwent three surgeries, but still has several more to go. Her devastated mum Kirsty, 29, said: "She doesn't want to go out, particularly on public transport because she doesn't want people to stare at her. "She hasn't been back to school since because she doesn't want her friends to see her like this."Elsie and her sister Amelia, 9, were playing with friends in a secure area at the back of their flat block when the attack took place at roughly 5pm on September 25.
