and i was thinking, who s going to help me? reporter: four people did, then heather abbott had to make a decision she thought she never would. keep her left foot, mangled by the explosion, or have it removed. if someone had told me that i was going to have half a leg, basically, at the age of 38 before this happened, i think i would have never believed it, i think i would have been devastated, i think i m going to be able to live my life in a normal way eventually when i get that permanent prosthesis. reporter: and finally one more sign of boston s strength. marathon sports, site of the first bombing, tore down the paper and opened its doors. runners welcomed once again. and, john, we have confirmed that dzhokhar tsarnaev has been moved to a prison facility in massachusetts. that happened overnight. the u.s. marshals office
confirming to cnn that he has, in fact, been moved. i m sure it comes as a great relief to the hospital because we ve all been camped out here, but also there s been several patients here cared for by that were injured in the attack were also here. their friends and family were not happy that mr. tsarnaev was here as well. john? miguel marquez at beth israel deaconess medical center. to confirm what miguel just said. the suspect dzhokhar tsarnaev has been moved to a medical facility at a prison in fort devons, massachusetts. he has been moved and of course, very sensitive issue because a lot of the victims at beth israel were not happy that he was also there. this also just in to cnn we learned that the mother and father of the suspect, dzhokhar and tamerlan tsarnaev, the mother and father have left dagestan and are now in another part of russia. the mother tells us that the father s planned trip to the u.s. has been delayed
opposite. my kids just, america took my kids away from me. only america. reporter: now, we ve heard a lot about how tamerlan, her oldest son, was sort of set on a more radical path by a man he met called misha. we heard from the mother in the same press conference saying how she was impressed by misha, how she felt ashamed that she wasn t a good muslim, and after this first contact with him, how she began praying regularly. john? such an interesting piece of this puzzle. we have to learn so much more about this, nic, this mysterious misha figure. nic robertson with us in dagestan this morning. thanks so much to you, nic. as we re talking about the suspects, we want to keep the focus as much as we can about the victims, and we have an image to share with you that really defines the phrase boston strong. it is an amazing picture. look at the cover of boston magazine. that is just beautiful. those are running shoes forming a heart with the message we will finish the race. those wo
boston s beth israel deaconess medical center where dzhokhar tsarnaev is no longer. miguel? john, it sounded like it happened between 1:00 and 3:00 this morning that mr. tsarnaev was moved from here at beth israel. the last we knew, his condition was fair. it s clear that he has improved enough that he could be moved. that was one concern that doctors here had. despite community concerns about him being cared for at the same facility where victims of the bombing he helped carry out were also being cared for. the facility he went to is a decommissioned military base. it can take high security prisoners, but more importantly, it has a hospital facility where they can continue to care for him until he s completely well enough to be put into another prison presumably to wait trial here in the boston area. but at the moment we can say he has left boston.
