Hill, Presiding Justice, concurring.
I concur in the opinion and judgment of the court. The additional tragedy of this case is that under existing law the deceased’s children cannot recover for the wrongful death of their mother. Jones v. Swett, 244 Ga. 715 (261 SE2d 610) (1979). The remedy for this unconscionable situation is to allow recovery for wrongful death. I would overrule Jones v. Swett, supra.
I am authorized to state that Justices Clarke, Smith and Weltner join in this concurrence.
