now I burp

shocked by a picture of my child at age (7?)

He looks like he is in a process of starvation.

I just couldn’t see it.

It was the same when, in response, whether at that time or at another time, I panicked in desperation and started feeding him everything in sight. He got chubby and then I realized I was buying him husky clothes and I still didn’t really get that he was getting fat. He was quite upset about it. But the force feeding did create a growth spurt. That was what someone pointed out to me was that he wasn’t growing. In height. I was so terrified.

So now it is the future that I was so desperately afraid of and things couldn’t be better that I never dared to hope.

My son is a healthy, grown child, living independently and I am in a position to help in some ways should he need that. And he has friends and relatives who can step in in a case of need in a way I NEVER HAD!

Still working on this, this is the place where it carries on for him and for a little while I get some of my broken plalces fixed. For the benefit of others as well as myself.

Starting with burping.

In the last week I have started burping normally, something I never did normally in my entire life.
