I loved how you described the army of motherhood--I think that's so true. Even for those of us who aren't mothers, there's something I think that strikes us when we read of someone else's child suffering. <br /><br />I know it's not protocol to cry in front of your patients, and all, but I bet that meant a lot to that mother.Kelly Loy Gilberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07631392902817058541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245783834297902042.post-87168015412927773162010-09-21T14:21:38.218-04:002010-09-21T14:21:38.218-04:00I am sitting here now, weeping as I read this, wit...I am sitting here now, weeping as I read this, with my own Kleenex covered with mascara.

It made me cry, and I think that can be a good thing, because so much of our time is spenting swallowing our tears and pretending we're stronger than we are.Terrynoreply@blogger.com
