Dr. Fiona did something unusual by explaining what was happening to Malala to her mother. This is noteworthy because it emphasizes her consideration for the family dynamic and the importance of keeping family members informed during such a critical time. In medical situations, especially involving serious injuries, it is more common for doctors to communicate primarily with the patient and/or their legal guardians, rather than directly with other family members without the patient's consent.
