I know a woman who found out she had brain tumor after she was pregnant. She had that wonderful boy and she lived about 2 years after that. She went to her precious Savior and left behind a husband who is glad he has his 3 boys.

The exact, polar opposite of selfishness. What a godly example, this woman. Prayers for her family, and that the little one for whom she gave her life will strive to be worthy of this sacrifice.

That's what I was thinking. I forget her name, but there was an Italian woman who did the same thing, gave her life for her child to be born, and was proclaimed a saint not long ago. "Greater love hath no man. . . ."

I believe you are thinking of St. Gianna Molla, who was a physician and surgeon as well as a mother.

“The exact, polar opposite of selfishness. What a godly example, this woman”

My thoughts exactly.

Yes, that’s right. I googled her name, and the story is briefly told here:
