Tina Frost was shot in the head on Oct. 1 during a concert on the Las Vegas strip.

She was in a coma for weeks following the shooting.

Now, she has left an inpatient rehab facility in Maryland and is back home in time for the holidays.

Frost graduated from Gardner-Webb University in 2012 and was a member of the soccer team.

Officials said the gunman, Stephen Paddock, fired thousands of rounds into the concert crowd below from his Mandalay Bay hotel room.

Fifty-eight people died in the shooting, and hundreds more were hurt.

Paddock killed himself before authorities reached the hotel room.
