A Sad Mother's Day for Some : A Reflection by Cindy Sheehan

t r u t h o u t - Cindy Sheehan A Sad Mother's Day for Some

Cindy Sheehan lost her son Casey in Iraq in April of 2004. In December of that year she wrote a scathing letter to TIME magazine last year when they selected George W. Bush as "Person of the Year" (who will it be this year--Ann Coulter?).

She reflects on the grief felt by nearly 1,600 mothers this Mother's Day.
