This is horrible, but it deserves no more press than anyone else's Mother having a stroke. What makes her so important that this deserves a story, what about my neighborm she is a great elderly lady and she had a stroke 2 days ago, can she get a story too ?? Remember folks, Politicians and their families are more important than common folks.
