Wife of British Prime Minister loses baby, advocates women's and children's healthcare in D.C.

From The Reliable Source at The Washington Post:

British PM's Wife Makes Herself Heard

In 2001, Sarah Brown gave birth to a premature baby girl who died 10 days later. She's now the mom of two young sons -- one with cystic fibrosis -- and an advocate for women's and children's health issues. On Wednesday, the very quiet wife of British Prime Minister Gordon Brown spoke up in D.C. at a women's-only gathering (hosted by journalist Elsa Walsh; guests included supermodel Christy Turlington, Rep. Lois Capps and GM exec Debbie Dingell) of the White Ribbon Alliance, which works to prevent childbirth deaths around the globe.

"In parts of the world, it's normal for a mother in labor to say goodbye to her older children because she might not see them again," Brown said.
