In a much anticipated but shocking move, Gabrielle Giffords, the Arizona Democrat for Congress has announced her resignation. Though such a decision from her part was expected from quite some time, her announcement via social networking sites definitely caused a stir.
Epitomizing hope and resilience, she serves as an idol to many, and it would be needless to say that her resignation would leave many hearts pining and hoping for a comeback. The reason behind this resignation is her frail condition, as she is still recovering from the last year attack that had her being shot in the head.
Though the assailant who left six people dead in that shootout is deemed schizophrenic, and unfit to stand trial, his actions have definitely snatched hopes of the people of Gabrielle’s constituency.
Recovering from severe head injuries, Gabrielle emerged as a valiant representative of people and is loved by people across the state. But sadly, her departure from the political scene would clear way for candidates from both the parties. As for the proceedings, her replacement would be chosen via special elections.
Thankfully, Gabrielle is fast on the road to recovery.
She revealed that she is recovering pretty fast from the injuries, and just needs to give more time to take care of herself. Well, we hope that you recover fast Gabrielle, for Arizona will have a tough time finding for a valiant soul like you as their representative.
