Loved the story about Ann Romney.....wish I could know her! Hated the headline from CT (Seeks sympathy)....I don't think that is Ann Romney's story at all....she just has and is dealing with life as it comes to her....She is a classy gal from the inside out....

“I know what’s like to finish the laundry and to look in the basket five minutes later and it’s full again. I know what’s like to pull all the groceries in and see the teenagers run through and all of a sudden all the groceries you just bought are gone,” Romney said to the crowd. “And I know what’s like to get up early in the morning and to get them off to school. And I know what’s like to get up in the middle of the night when they’re sick. And I know what’s like to struggle and to have those concerns that all mothers have.”

And this had to be just an incredible time for her and all of their family.....

Speaking about her husband’s time as head of the Salt Lake Olympics, Mrs. Romney mentioned her struggle with MS saying her disease's progress changed considerably for the better speaking emotionally of carrying the Olympic torch.

“I could barely walk when I went out. And Mitt, unbeknownst, chose me to be his hero and to run the torch into Salt Lake City," she said. "And what a moment that was with my children surrounding me. With my husband, with tears rolling down their faces because they knew what a long journey I had been on. For me to be able to run that torch and what a joyful moment it was for our family. For me to able have my husband pass that torch.”
