Senator Tim Johnson of South Dakota "suffered bleeding in the brain caused by cerebral arteriovenous malformation, a congenital problem that causes enlarged and tangled blood vessels" in December 2006. After surgery and rehab he returned to the Senate a year and a half later. Of course Representatives only serve 2 years not 7 so I would think someone would have to replace Giffords in the House if she needs a protrated period of time to recover.
