A wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. After two operations and radiation treatment, she showed signs of improvement. There was hope that she might beat this dreaded disease. But three years later, her small body succumbed to the insidious growth. She was survived by her husband and two children who were only three and five at the time of her death.
Immediately after the funeral, the three went for a brief vacation. When they were pulling the car into the driveway upon their return, the three-year-old boy expressed the hope of everyone in the car, "Maybe Mommy's home."
