Anon,

Whoever you are and whereever you are, I just said a prayer for you that you would be feeling better very soon and staying in good health.  I am so sorry that you suffered so much with your recent illness.  We have been there recently with our 2 ssw cah girls (7 & 5), it’s hell on my husband and I and I imagine 100 times worse on our girls.  I always wonder if they are thinking the same things you mentioned- about being afraid to go to sleep or wondering if they would die from this illness.  You made an excellent point to the inside edition girl.  And I admire you for making it!Wishing you the best!  :)
