Question TOO TOO emotional

Hello, everyone.

Well, I am feeling rested and coping better with my son's illnesses.

However, I believe I am making people I talk to uncomfortable.

For example; today I had to do a business transaction which involved me talking about my son and his conditions. This had to be discussed.

Anyhow, I noticed that the business person became really uncomfortable . . . (although the business person had to get this information in order to complete the deal)

What I am conscious of:
1. I show all my emotions in my face, (serious stress wrinkles)

2. the problems /illnesses I have to describe make my life extremely stressful daily

3. the pain and sometimes sadness can be heard in my voice tone

4. I am unable to talk without displaying deep emotions.

I get the impression from their body reactions, that somehow some people when dealing with me are overwhelm by what I am going through.

Anyhow, after we completed the business deal, outside the office, I said to myself why can't I talk about my son without showing so much emotions . . . . Ok I am unable to pretend that all is well.

The irony of today's incident, is, I really was feeling as if I was coping better.

Which is it emotions or illnesses scaring people huh?
