Lydia and her parents, Harry and Leah, were visited by Vice President JD Vance and Second Lady Usha Vance Wednesday.

MINNEAPOLIS — Lydia Kaiser, the 12-year-old who was injured in the Annunciation Church shooting while shielding a younger student, has been released from the hospital, according to a spokesperson with Children’s Minnesota.

The spokesperson confirmed Saturday that all seven of the children admitted to the hospital had been discharged.

Lydia and her parents, Harry and Leah, were visited by Vice President JD Vance and Second Lady Usha Vance Wednesday. Harry said he read a note to the vice president, urging him to take action to reduce gun violence.

“Will you please promise to pursue, despite powerful lobbies, some commonsense bipartisan legislation as a starting point, so we can come out of our corners and find the values that we share so that this time some progress is made?” Harry said, while reading the note to reporters. “Thoughts and prayers haven’t been enough; many policies have been dismissed without even being studied or tried. It’s so complicated. I don’t claim to have the answers, but we have to commit to looking.”

According to a GoFundMe set up for Lydia and her family, she is walking and talking, but she will need another surgery in the near future to replace a section of her skull that was removed to allow for swelling in her brain.
