    As the mother of a child lost to a brain tumor, I fully support this proposed ammendment. It is truly heartbreaking to lose your child, and a family needs the suooprt of all members at this difficult time.

    I definately believe fathers as well as mothers should qualify for this. My husband and I lost our 13 year old daughter a year ago and the pain never ends and both parents should have ample time to grieve apporpriately, sincerely, Kim Borwig
