Gabby Giffords' tale of survival grows more astonishing by the day. While she surely faces a long and agonizing period of rehabilitation and an uncertain future, to think that she's sitting up in bed a mere five days after suffering such a horrific injury is nothing short of miraculous.
TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Gabrielle Giffords has made a "major leap forward" in her recovery progress, opening both eyes and moving her legs and arms, her doctors said Thursday.

With her closest friends from Congress holding her hand Wednesday evening, Giffords opened her unbandaged left eye and tried to focus on loved ones for the first time.
"This is a major leap forward. This is a major milestone for her and we're hoping that she crosses through many more," said her neurosurgeon Dr. Michael Lemole.
