A family friends tells FOX 11 News Rep. Giffords woke up from anesthesia & spoke to people in her room & recognized her husband Mark Kelly.
Prayers for your daughter! I hope she’s okay now.
I also hope Rep Giffords is ok. It’s possible that this shot ricocheted off the bone and didn’t really tear up any tissue.
I don’t know anything about her and I’d never heard of her before, in fact, but I hope and pray that she makes it.
I am not an expert on the subject. It just sounded like a miracle to have brain surgery and suddenly be able to recognize people and respond..and apparently it isn’t true.
She is unconscious and brain swelling is a concern...so she still might not make it.

Apparently it did go through her brain.

But of course, as we have seen, reports can be wrong.
Thanks be to God... many prayers up for her continued recovery.
Stand down on the report of Congresswoman being alert. Not true says hospital, despite reports to the contrary....
Good news!
Prayers for all the victims who are in critical condition, the families of all the victims, particularly the family of the 9-year old girl who lost her life today.
Best news i’ve heard all day! Thanks for posting Kristinn.
I made a comment on another thread about how I wondered if something like this is how it would go down...with a disclaimer that I didn’t think Giffords was the Antichrist..it just got me to thinking if this is how it might happen.
on that link is the commercial by ted williams...it sounds like he has some kind of lisp

You got that right! And continued prayers! She can’t be out of the woods yet!
Just wow!
Ditto! Prayers up for the victims, each and every one of them and their families.
Great news! Thank goodness.

A medical expert on either CNN or FOX stated that one of Giffords' aides was a former nurse. When he heard the shots he ran to her side, put pressure on her wound to slow the bleeding and kept her conscious and active until the ambulance arrived. The specialist reporting this credits the aide's quick action with Gabrielle's miraculous survival and promising prognosis.
God only knows. (to coin a phrase)...
May this blessed woman seize the chance God granted her. May she turn away from the pro abortion movement and defend the most helpless among us.
And may her father get a freakin clue about which side of the spectrum are violent scum.
