Perhaps because I once had to tell my children that I might in fact die and how heart wrenching that was to do. Just picturing one of my children running to his room and waiting ... I think I'm not quite far enough away from that time to be able to just let it wash over me. But the time will come when I can. I know that.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08271529958269038071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155836879539082676.post-43904548334984617452009-09-17T12:52:29.815+10:002009-09-17T12:52:29.815+10:00So cute, and so wise, too.So cute, and so wise, too.Janiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06509431336916594990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155836879539082676.post-47590192375827578552009-09-17T07:15:59.024+10:002009-09-17T07:15:59.024+10:00Oh, Delwyn, I'm sorry!

Well, the fear of death is truly painful no matter whose it is, and how great he could begin to deal with it then so the fear already lessened for him. I do hope it's that easy...

I think it's amazing that he dealt with the fear of losing you in such a healthy way (amazing because he was so young): he created a scenario for the event. Honestly, I think it's hard to lose a parent at any age, Delwyn. Take great care of yourself in every way.
