Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...


Just speaking for myself, I find this really cool. After all she's been through, this is a triumph.

U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords made a public appearance Monday evening in Houston with her astronaut husband at a NASA function, a spokesman said.

The Arizona congresswoman appeared alongside Mark Kelly, who received a Spaceflight Medal during an awards ceremony at Space Center Houston.

"Personally, I was not surprised at all," Giffords' spokesman C.J. Karamargin said. "For us it is clear the congresswoman's physical strength is improving as well as her cognitive and verbal abilities."

All her wits and intellect are intact from what I've heard, so its only a matter of time and some more rehabilitation before she's back to work and doing well. That's a good thing.

She's got a long road ahead of her, but I'm hoping she'll make a full recovery. From what I've heard, her mind is sharp, but she has some trouble verbalizing things and getting them out.

Typically, however, some are calling for her to retire from Congress...sigh. I hope she gets over whatever remaining health problems she's experiencing quickly and REALLY gets back, to silence those. From what I've read, she's not one we want to lose.
