(CNN) — U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords, recovering from a gunshot wound to the head sustained January 8, is regaining part of her ability to speak, her spokesman said Wednesday.

C.J. Karamargin would not divulge what Giffords has said, other than saying she asked for toast.

“It’s very good news,” he told CNN.

Indeed. In fact, I’ll go further… given the nature and location of her wound, it is quite simply nothing short of miraculous.

My prayers continue for her recovery, and I hope all my readers will join me in those prayers.
