A Sydney mother has spoken publicly for the first time since surviving a shark attack more than two months ago, crediting community support with helping her "get better, not bitter".In a post on her GoFundMe donation page, Leah Stewart, 34, said she still had a long way to go, but her recovery had been "remarkable"."A huge part of that is because of the absolute army of love, support, prayers and encouragement surrounding my family and I from all over the world," she said "That means more to me than I can say, and I truly believe it’s played a huge role in my recovery."Stewart was swimming between the flags close to shore when she was attacked by a great white shark at Coogee Beach on 13 June
