So incredibly sad. She was such a rock over the years for her husband. Even though her devotion and love for him was such an inspiration, I couldn't help thinking after he died that she could now have a chance to do some things that she had not had a chance to do - ie. travel, perhaps further pursue her career. She had spent so many years caring for her husband (and I know this was her choice - I'm sure she wouldn't have had it any other way) But still, after her grief gradually lessened, she could do some of the activities she had curtailed over the years. Then to be struck with cancer!! Their poor son - what an awesome mom and woman she was - my heart goes out to him and to their family. Such a tragedy....
