I'm so glad you're there to dry those tears and offer your son the support and understanding that only a mother can. It's so hard to see our loved ones hurting both mentally and physically.

And I don't get it either...never have Mistiis. It's true that men grieve differently then women but that attitude of sucking it up and "fixing it" just drives me up the wall. Tear Soup is such a wonderful read...get him a copy.
