<p>What an astoundingly beautiful story!
Your friends are lovely,too.</p>
<p>What a heartwarming story! Your son must be a fine young man to inspire such generosity from such a wonderful young woman. It is clear to all of us how he turned out to be the sensitive, caring young man he is. You have raised him beautifully, Sunrise.</p>
<p>That is a wonderful story, Sunrise! Thank you for telling us about it. </p>
<p>I agree with eyemamom. You need to allow your friends to help you. Today I made and delivered dinner to a family from S2’s former school with a medical crisis. The kids in S2’s grade were very close and have remained in touch, with several reunions already, and the mothers have remained in touch, as well. One of them set up a meal train and the family has had dinner delivered every night, either homemade or ordered from a local restaurant. The recipient of these meals has made it clear that this is making a big difference to the family, and she feels supported as she deals with the crisis. From my point of view, I am so grateful to have a way to support the family, to provide something they need, to make life a little less difficult, and to show in a concrete way that I care about them. This helps me. You need to allow your friends to help you, Sunrise, for their sakes.</p>
<p>Lovely story, Sunrise. It warms my heart to hear of the kindness of your S and his friend.</p>
<p>Your story about the excellent friendships your son has garnered in his young adult years gave me a lift, Sunrise. May all of our children find their “chosen” family as well as their blood kin to lift them through life’s ups and downs and to share their road. As a parent, although you were on the receiving end this time of a young graceful woman’s sincere assists, I know the thing that registers most with you as a mother… is that your son created and earned this friendship entirely on his own. How heartening! Yeah for these young adults of fine character coming up now, and yeah for you for rearing someone this emotionally intelligent.</p>
<p>That’s a wonderful story, Sunrise. I’m not even sure my own kids would be so thoughtful to me in times of trouble.</p>
<p>That was a great story and it says a lot about the kind of young man your son is. It sounds like he has very good, supportive friends. </p>
<p>So glad to hear you are feeling better. Sending you lots of hugs and healing thoughts!</p>
<p>Thanks for sharing that story, Sunrise. It speaks a lot about your son and the kind of friendships he has nurtured. I’m so glad to hear that you are feeling better. Hoping that you continue to improve.</p>
<p>Thinking of you, sunrise.</p>
<p>Also thinking of you, Sunrise.</p>
<p>Good morning, Sunrise.</p>
<p>Thinking of you, Sunrise, and hoping you’re getting some much deserved pain-free rest!</p>
<p>Thinking of you today Sunrise…I hope the chemo is doing an awesome job, while not robbing you of too much of your strength while it is doing it.</p>
<p>You are on my mind this morning, sunrise. Warm wishes to you.</p>
<p>Hi Sunrise-- I hope your days are good and your evenings are restful. Hoping that you still have pain relief. Take care, Sunrise, I know so many of us are thinking about you.</p>
<p>Good morning from Maryland. I have been thinking of you.</p>
<p>I hope you are doing well and able to enjoy the colorful Fall foliage!</p>
<p>Thinking of you</p>
