Giffords has been told that she was shot. Her ability to walk and talk is improving. And there's "a good chance" she'll be able to attend her husband's space shuttle launch next month.
From a medical standpoint, it's just amazing for me to see such a speedy recover. Most people don't survive gun shots, let alone gun shots to that location of the brain.
As a CNA, who works in a convalesent skilled nursing facility, I have so many paatients that have the same affects that the bullet prokoked, and it takes these people years to improve their walking, and speech. Some of my patients are unable to complete their activities of daily living, and this congresswoman has been able to improve so quickly, which is amazing.
