Several sources are reporting that Rep. Gabrielle Giffords will attend her husband’s Endeavour space shuttle launch at Cape Canaveral on Friday—a launch that President Obama and the first family are also expected to attend.
This would be the first time that Giffords is allowed to travel since she was flown from Tucson to Houston more than three months ago to recover from her injuries sustained in Tucson.
An interview with Mark Kelly by Katie Couric where this subject is discussed will be aired tomorrow, Monday, on “CBS Evening News with Katie Couric.”
