Shark attack survivor Leah Stewart has opened up about the challenges of relearning everyday tasks after losing an arm in a terrifying mauling at a popular Sydney beach - and has revealed she hopes to return to the water eventually. The 35-year-old teacher and mother-of-one was swimming between the flags at Coogee Beach on June 13 when she was attacked by a suspected great white shark. She spent two weeks in a coma and underwent multiple surgeries, including the amputation of one arm below the elbow. Four months on, Ms Stewart has shared an emotional milestone in her recovery, revealing she has finally managed to plait her own hair after hundreds of failed attempts.
