By TAMARA LUSH (AP) – 1 hour ago

Instead, she must prepare for the birth without her baby's father.

Absolutely heartbreaking. As a wife and mother, I can't fathom the idea of my husband not ever coming home.
Once again, blessings to all invovled and affected.

The wife and mother in the article is a good freind of a freind of mine. I've only met the couple a few times, but I get all knotted up when I talk about it. Its so heartbreaking.

Gordon Jones, 28, was among the 11 who died when an oil rig exploded April 20 in the Gulf of Mexico. Nearly two weeks after the tragedy, relatives of the dead have held memorial services, sued rig operator BP-PLC and grappled with waves of grief as the catastrophe plays out on a worldwide stage — with barely a mention of their loved ones' names....
She and other victims' family members aren't casting blame; they understand the environmental impact is the reason why the spill has gotten so much attention and their loved ones, so little.

They're not casting blame for the coverage being more about the environmental impact than about their loved ones.
It's to be expected that they would sue BP.
