37 Notes

This is one of the most beautiful essays that I have ever read...

mammalingo:

From the New York Times: “How do you parent without a future, knowing that you will lose your child, bit by bit?” It is written by the mother of a terminally-ill child. “The only task here,” she says, “is to love.”

A quick yet powerful read about the situation of a mother and her son.  Heartbreaking.
