Did Fiorina say, "I buried a child" at one point?

having breast cancer. I don't know how that makes her a suitable candidate for president, but I guess if that's all you got, you go with it...if she's trying for a sympathy vote, I'm afraid she's fishing in the wrong pond. Nobody can listen to her for five minutes without hating her...and this is her "toned down" mode that her handlers having been working with her on...
