I've seen you type something like this about your son before, mind if I ask what's wrong?

Just curious, that's all

Unbalanced translocation of the 7th and 18th chromosome. Trisomy for a portion of 7, monosomy for a portion of 18. Comes with a host of physical and developmental problems. He's nearly 8 and is about 6 months developmentally. But we were told to expect to bury him by the time he turned 18 months old, so every day we get is a blessing.

I constantly refer to this (great) Goethe quote:

"One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words."

A good book. An uplifting song (especially one that seems to fit the mood I feel). A profound picture. A simple conversation with someone I can confide in - or sometimes a conversation of nothing with someone I don't know - that reassures my faith in humanity.

Sometimes simply reflecting on life, philosophizing, realizing the incredible power of the human mind to create and maintain states of being.

I appreciate the sentiment, but there's nothing special about what me or my wife do. We're just parents trying to make the best life for our kids. No different than what any parent should be doing. It's nothing we ever dreamed we would be able to handle before he was born, but it's just what you do when you have children.

But thanks again.

u can say being depressed can be like "oh my football team lost, i blew $200 bucks last night and i shat my pants"

depression is a chronic disease. so, yeah, its more long term
