∙ 12y agoYes, Barack Obama's mother Stanley Ann Dunham died of ovarian cancer on November 7, 1995. She was 52 years old and spent her last year in Hawaii. President Obama talked about her death in a 30-second ad for his campaign about Health Care reform.
He said,
"I remember my mother. She was 52 years old when she died of ovarian cancer, and you know what she was thinking about in the last months of her life? She wasn't thinking about getting well. She wasn't thinking about coming to terms with her own mortality. She had been diagnosed just as she was transitioning between jobs. And she wasn't sure whether insurance was going to cover the medical expenses because they might consider this a preexisting condition. I remember just being heartbroken, seeing her struggle through the paperwork and the medical bills and the insurance forms. So, I have seen what it's like when somebody you love is suffering because of a broken health care system. And it's wrong. It's not who we are as a people."
