[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 690533, member: 18958"] You know, my son has a chronic illness, acquired at birth. We did not know until he was 19, and then his condition worsened when he was 20. When he left my home, I completely lost any influence over his taking antivirals. It was a nightmare for me. In many ways it still is. It was intolerable, the idea that I would lose my son, or that he become seriously ill and not recover, during my lifetime. I have no real idea of why I am posting here, except for a strong desire to respond to this part of WSM's post:[I] what's it to you.[/I] And yet I do not know how to put into words, what I feel. How if I let myself think about it, the sun rises and sets for me, on him. The fear I would want to die in a world without him. That my life...in the end will only have been him. [I]What's it to me? Everything.[/I] I guess I need to reread the article on detachment. [/QUOTE]
