Sad that your parents couldn't give you some comfort. When we're little, the medical world can be so overwhelming...especially in it's impersonal atmosphere....the opposite of the best places for children to spend time.

I read this and just think of so many things. My own memories of things that happened that in therapy I understood to be wrong. My own visit to the hospital to have tests and nurses speaking so close I could hear their theories. The unjust world of the unfit mother...the rebuke on the child. Unfit fathers too. Thanks for bringing this up.

Thank you. I did not have this kind of childhood, but I know many who have. This helps me in a small way feel and understand their journey.
