Gabrielle Giffords leaves hospital following appendicitis treatment

Former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) announced on Saturday that she was leaving the hospital after being treated for appendicitis.

"Eleven years ago, I left the hospital facing a lifetime of recovery. Today, I'm leaving the hospital glad it's only appendicitis, and grateful for friends, family, my incredible medical team, and of course @CaptMarkKelly, who gives true meaning to 'in sickness and in health,'" Giffords tweeted.

The former Arizona congresswoman also included a video of her swinging her fist and saying "I'm getting better. Let's go!"

She thanked people for their well wishes and asked for audiobook and TV recommendations ahead of a weekend at home resting.
