man, that sucks! I've got a Mothers Day horror story also, kinda long: Mothers Day, 3 years ago. My wife and i saved up forever to take the kids to DisneyWorld. It had always been a dream of my parents-in-law to take their grandkids to Disney so my wife and i thought "what the hell, why not" and invited them to Disney with us. So the morning of Mothers Day we took off from Des Moines,Iowa headed towards Nashville TN.which was the halfway point between Iowa and Florida. so we get to Nashville check in to the hotel, get somethin to eat and get the kids off to bed. Wife, Mother-in-law and I decided to go down to the pool,father-in-law said he'd stay in the room with the kids who were now fast asleep. so we go do our pool thing, come back up to the room and there's my father-in-law,in the 45min. we were gone to the pool, he had died of a massive heart attack on our vacation!........Happy Mothers Day huh?
