Lowell Teen Injured In Boston Marathon Bombing Crowned Prom Queen
BOSTON (CBS) -- The Lowell teen injured in the Boston Marathon bombings was crowned Prom Queen Tuesday night.
Sydney Corcoran, a senior at Lowell High, had her hair and makeup done on Newbury Street before the big night.
Sydney and her mother Celeste were injured in the bombing. Celeste lost both her legs.
"I know that I can't dance with them but just to be back with my friends from high school, I haven't seen them in over a month so I'm happy to go tonight and see everyone," Sydney said before the prom.
Celeste said she's just happy to see her daughter go to the prom. "She's been through a lot, she deserves to have fun tonight," she said.
Next up is another milestone: graduation next week.
