Recovering From A Gunshot To The Head

from National Public Radio

Doctors says the outlook continues to look positive for Rep. Gabrielle Giffords to survive after being shot in the head. What is unknown is what sort of recovery she can expect, and how long and difficult the recovery will be. Jay Gordon is an attorney who suffered a similar injury in 1986, and returned to work just 5 weeks later. NPR's Michele Norris talks to Gordon about his recovery.
