Doctors are optimistic about her chances of recovery. The news is a dramatic reversal of previous reports circulated on some national news cable channels and local media claiming that Giffords and up to 6 others were dead. Doctors say she had suffered from a gunshot wound to the head but is responsive. All the victims were wounded in a mass shooting Saturday morning at the Safeway grocery store at Ina and Oracle in Tucson. One shooter is in custody.
