Mothers are mothers

There's a fascinating story in the Village Voice: "Weeping With the Enemy. Phyllis Rodriguez lost her son at the World Trade Center. And then she found the mother of Zacarias Moussaoui."

The story is quite long but well worth the read. The two women bonded initially because they are both mothers who have, figuratively or literally, lost sons. And then they became friends.
It's not a sappy story or one you can easily dismiss. It's quite captivating.
