Nancy Pelosi says she's "heartbroken and traumatized" by the vicious attack on her husband that landed him in the hospital with a shattered skull ... it seems, thankfully, he's gonna pull through.

The House Speaker issued her first public statement about the assault, highlighting that the hammer-wielding assailant was after her -- not her 82-year-old husband Paul -- but she was in D.C. at the time of the attack.
