Here goes: After my children get vaccinations, we often get a small toy at Toys R Us. Right. Its the reward for the pain and helps us to contribute to the American reputation for consumerism. Win-win. Anyway, one day we were there and a little boy was standing near us. He was about 6. Cute kid. He was wearing a hospital mask. Unusual. Wait...Creepy! What was wrong with this kid and why was he out? Did he have some horrible communicable disease? Tb? Sars? Ebola?! Were MY kids going to contract it by standing near him?? Why did his irresponsible mother have him out near other children?? I hesitated and then said: whats wrong with him? My tone was mildly accusing. His mother, without a trace of animosity, said: Oh. He has leukemia. I felt like an ass. Here this child might not live to see another year and instead of making it better, I made it worse. I nodded awkwardly as an apology, but I felt terrible. #100daysofregret
