Seventeen-year-old Paige Winter can still smile after an ordeal with a shark that put her in a hospital for a month.

The North Carolina teen was seen in a Facebook post, celebrating Wednesday at the restaurant where she had been working before the June 2 attack.

Photos show her using a walker, wearing a prosthetic left leg and bandages on both of her surgically repaired hands.

“I’m not going to say that it was worth it, but I am going to say that I am beyond happy and this is like almost surreal to be here with everybody again,” Paige told New Bern, N.C.’s WCTI-TV.

Just days after the attack, the teen reportedly underwent surgery on her hands for 14 hours.

The attack occurred off Fort Macon State Park. Paige was freed from the shark’s jaws when her father, Charlie Winter, came to her aid and started punching the creature until it let go of his daughter.

“Thank God our son was with her,” Paige’s grandmother, Janet Winter, said after the attack.

Hospital officials said Paige remained a supporter of marine life despite what happened to her.

She has also appeared to maintain a positive attitude throughout her recovery.

"I will continue to stay positive,” she said at one point, “and be thankful that it was not worse.”
