11/19/09 Moms in the News

Meet Surina from Mongolia. Surina ran into a burning house to rescue three children. Two of the children were her neighbor's and one was her own son. Sadly she was unable to rescue her own son. Surina suffered extensive burn damage and today - a little over a year later - she is still getting treatment.

Meet Jocelyn Morales. Jocelyn got pregnant her senior year in high school. Though the father encouraged her to abort, Jocelyn's own mother supported her in her decision to raise her baby. I'm not sure who is the true hero in this story - Jocelyn or her mother. Jocelyn's mother supported Jocelyn through her pregnancy and encouraged her daughter to get her GED. The article goes on about Jocelyn, her mother and her son Angel. It's just a feel good article that shows how a seemingly negative situation was made positive.
