President Obama håller just nu sitt tal med anhöriga till offren närvarande, Giffords man, läkare, politiker och vanliga medborgare från detta community i Tucson, Arizona. Tidigare under dagen besökte han Giffords på sjukhuset. Under besöket öppnade hon ögonen för första gången.
Our hearts are full of hope and thanks for the 13 Americans who survived the shooting, including the congresswoman many of them went to see on Saturday. I have just come from the University Medical Center, just a mile from here, where our friend Gabby courageously fights to recover even as we speak.
And I can tell you this … Gabby opened her eyes for the first time.
