As my heart breaks for her and her children that will grow up w/o a momma I have to say I have the upmost respect for this lady. I sadly imagine her last moments were terrifying, but she would have made the Spartans proud.
I saw the headline and couldn't bring myself to read the story. I am 32 and have a 3 year old.
Even now, if I was to lose a child or grandchild................a mother's love and instinct to protect her progeny, must be one of the strongest human behaviors there is. I hope the little girl grows up to have a wonderful life.
