Gabrielle Giffords

Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords has announced that she will resign from Congress this week to continue her recuperation from the brain injury she suffered when she was shot in the head early last year in a rampage that left six people dead.

Rep. Gabrielle Giffords on Sunday posted two new photos to her Facebook page, offering the first official look at the congresswoman from Arizona since she was shot in the head in January. The two photos, which were captured by P. K. Weis on May 17, show a smiling Gifford at the TIRR Memorial Hermann, where she has been receiving treatment. In one photo, Gifford is seen sitting and smiling alongsid

If you haven't had a good cry yet today, then check out this adorable boy who (wait for it) went behind his parents back and sold his toys to support Arizona Congresswoman Giffords and her family. His donation? A generous $2.85.
