After what happened to Rep. Gabrielle Giffords last winter, there is a natural tendency to ask, 'what does she look like' after taking a bullet to the head that statistically should have killed her. Five months later a photo released today shows Ms. Giffords smiling, and while the wound is obvious, looking good and continuing to recover. Ifact, she may leave rehab soon and go home.
Its an inspiring story to see someone fight back from a truly horrific situation. Whether she can recover to the point of continuing her political career is unknown, but everyone should wish her well.

Boy, when you put a face to it it's hard not to root even harder for the lady.
Remarkable recovery - good for her.
Meanwhile, let's give huge kudos to her doctors - wow - what a job they did to save and rehab her.
Makes one appreicate life, doesn't it and the good medicine we have - I wonder what insurance she has (partially government funded I suspect: her congressional health care package and her Navy husband with Tricare). Funny, how some want to take that sort of coverage away, isn't it?
