The return of Gabby Giffords!

 

There will be no dry eyes in most of the 11 and a half minutes that you watch this video!. Congresswoman Giffords came back to the House yesterday to cast her vote on the debt ceiling bill. Gabby has returned and she looks great! We have been praying for her, following her progress. She is a real example of courage and perseverance for everyone and a role model for our young women.

On June 20, Gabby returned to Tuscon for the first time since the events of  January 8th – from the Giffords for Congress website:

Before taking his wife out for her first glimpse of Tucson since Jan. 8, Mark Kelly stuffed his pockets with Kleenex.

It was a good thing he did.

One of the first things Gabrielle Giffords noticed during a ride downtown Saturday was a message on the marquee of the Rialto Theatre.

“We love you Gabby,” she blurted from her seat in their SUV, reading the sign aloud.

Her eyes misted. Kelly reached into his pocket.

“After everything she’s been through, this was a milestone. It was motivational for her to drive through the district and see some of the people she represents and see how things are.”
