Great story, what a woman. I'll think about what she said as I bring my baby boy home from the hospital today.

Nice story. But one must wonder how many hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxpayer money this woman has collected from Social Security.

Callmeron, I'm not sure I've ever read a more ridiculous comment about a story/column. Perhaps you wish she'd have smoked a couple of packs a day throughout her life? That would have finished her off ohhh, 30 or 40 years ago. Just think of all the money that would have been saved. Sheesh.

Avoid stress, be happy, don't be overly busy to the point of exhaustion. Why isn't this motto being put forward more from FDA, and the health/science experts of the world? Because you can't sell those things, they can't be marketed, there is no money to make. Common sense people, just have common sense. Many don't even know what that is or how discover it.
