Gabrielle Giffords is still recovering quickly, and today she has made what is surely the best sign of progress yet, moving from playing with an iPhone to playing with an iPad. "Doctors said she had scrolled through the iPad and picked out a stuffed animal. 'That’s how we know she’s aware,' said Michael Lemole, the neurosurgeon who’s been overseeing her care." No, you know she's aware because she's using an Apple product and not a PC or Kindle. Internet fight! Also, was the stuffed animal organic? Let's hope so. That indicates a higher level of thinking as well. Oh, and she's trying to talk, but that's irrelevant because the iPad probably won't have FaceTime until the next generation comes out.
Edith Kaplan, one of the old pros of neuropsychology, said that if a flower pot fell off a third story window and hit I. M. Pei in the right parietal lobe as he walked down the sidewalk, he would still be better at spatial relations than any of the rest of us.
My guess is that she may lose some ability to articulate speech and express herself, but will understand just fine. So yes, way ahead of Rep. Gohmert.
My kid with Down syndrome is vey proficient with the iPad. This really is bad news for John McCain. I would also like to reiterate my earlier nomination for Ms. Giffords for President in 2012.

See, this is what happens when you have health care that's run by some government bureaucrats.
You, uh, might actually get better.
Let me try. Goodbye P-Points.
I bet she has a half of a mind to give a stern talking to this Mr Jared fellow.
Was anyone here alive when James Brady appeared in public for the first time? <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wik..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reagan_assassination...">http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...
