Fine, you can call it miraculous, but I guess so were the melted cars on the streets of new york during 9/11. |

One tiny plane can bring down 2 well build buildings and turn them into "flowing rivers of metal" and melt every thing around it in a 40 mile radius.... Don't be ridiculous..

| Stumpy McDougal User ID: 15791612 United States08/09/2012 02:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Interesting video. I also knew someone with a brain injury - certainly not to the degree she had - and although he functioned well one pupil always appeared dilated and one side of his mouth sorta dragged down.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 21569848  United Kingdom08/09/2012 02:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | While it is true neurology is not so well understood that results are definite, it is still subject to statistical analysis. Add this to the fact that this is high level government, and thus subject to the scrutiny of conspiracy theory, there is an indication that Giffords may be faking (or forced to fake) her injury. I spent a year adamantly learning about the subject of nuerological impairment once a brain injury happened to someone close to me, and while Giffords' recovery shows similar features to my experience ( getting the patient to give a thumbs-ups and speech impediments, etc.) the raw results are so phenomenal, it's arguably unbelievable. Its good to know your conspiracy is based on your extensive knowldege of the brain. Which consists of "the left works the right" and "it's plastic". Is that right? |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 21258417 United States08/09/2012 02:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have worked with brain injury...to this extent... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21258417 They do NOT climb mountains in one years time... NOt the one's I have seen anyway Most are still leaning how to walk again and regain their balance... It depends on what part of the brain they are injured in... speech areas; memory areas... We, as the public, are not privy to where in the brain she was supposedly injured of course... |

What he was implying was his suspicions of her recovery based on the complete lack of facts about her brain trauma, treatment or any extensive knowledge whatsoever of neurology. |

Quoting: Dr. Astro LOL.. good point. Can't say I have much too add as far as that she probably has the best team of neruo-scientists in the world working to aid in her recovery.
