My son, whose life was saved by a seatbelt and airbags last night. That was my second trip to the Emergency Room with him in the past month. I want him to live a long and healthy life (emotionally and physically); and I want him to find a vocation which brings him personal fulfillment and financial security.

I am very concerned about my mother and about my daughter. My mother is (of course) still grieving, but she’s scaring us a bit, lately. She is depressed, but there is more to it, more than just depression.
My daughter is now showing signs of the stress of having a mother that was sick for several years (me, cancer) and the stress of losing her beloved grandfather. There are other factors and there are very clear signs that this is a huge problem and she needs help. I am so scared for her. I want to be able hug the problem away, tell her that everything will be fine and not to worry about things – but it’s not true. She wants a promise that I can’t give her. I won’t lie to her, so I won’t make a promise she wants to her.
My family is my world, a huge part of my world. Knowing that my mother and daughter are really on the edge, scares me to my very core.
My children, of course, and money.
