my heart aches

seanandmom02.jpg

the reality is unpalatable.

and I believe there's no word to describe a mother's feeling as she watches her child fall asleep his head lying on the toilet seat after he's thrown up, again.

my heart aches. my eyes cry. my soul begs.

but every second I am bashed by my love for my son.

Oh, poor Sean! Ouch ouch ouch ouch. I'm sending him a hug from Minneapolis, Minnesota. :) Get better soon, Sean!

The only thing worse than throwing up yourself is having to care for your child (or children) when they are vomiting. I can empathize. I am sending you hugs from Dallas, Texas, USA! {{{HUGS}}}
Oh, Irene. Big, big, big hugs coming to you and Sean (and Will, too...it must be hard to see your brother so sick!).

My heart is breaking for you and Sean, too. Poor little guy, I hope he feels better very soon.

a bear hug to Sean and mommy... oh Irene, I feel for you. It's not easy. I hope he'll get better soon. It was good that you went to the doctor early enough. With the right medecine he'll be over it soon.

Gros bisous à tous les trois!
