DENVER -- Amelia Lehman has been a Rockies fan since the club's inception in 1993, even though she grew up in Tennessee.
On Sunday, she was celebrating Mother's Day with her husband and two boys at Coors Field. It was the first time she had ever been to a Rockies game in person. But that's not the primary reason this day was so meaningful.
Lehman was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer in 2009. She battled it, with two surgeries, eight rounds of intensive chemotherapy and six weeks of daily radiation. The cancer was gone, and Lehman and her family rejoiced.
