    I can only imagine the decision of Rosaleen and the other mothers to let their sons go on with the struggle will have haunted them at stages in life, hopefully they got comfort in the fact the sacrifice they made did make a differnce to the prisoners eventually and that they go down as some of the greatest heroes Ireland has ever seen :ireland:

    I was thinking the same! But remembered my 2nd cousin was on same wing as Bobby Sands(and not much younger) and his mother is still alive.

    Sad reading this about Bobby Sands mother passing. I was just watching a few documentaries about the hunger strikers and Brendan Hughes tonight too. RIP to Rosaleen Sands. Every mothers worst feelings losing a son and in the manner in which he died.

    Bobby's brother Sean used to play music in my local here in Sligo,many a lock in a few of us spent with him, he's a fantastic musician and a very witty man.
