Mahatma Mom

I might be fast and loose (hyperbolic) with the terminology, but it seems to fit this case, as far as I can tell.

Read up about a young mom who determined to forgo chemo for an aggressive brain tumor so that her unborn baby could grow big enough to survive after delivery.

The sacrifice cost the mom her life, but her little girl survived to go home with her father, who had held firm in honoring his wife’s wishes throughout the ordeal.
