Help, please?

RC (my bf) is a delivery driver for a company that delivers drugs and supplies for people and families of hospice patients. Today, he called me and said he had a delivery to a kid with terminal cancer, and wanted to know if I had a fursuit in my car. For once, I didn't, but I told him I could wear Aragorn's if he'd let me (he did). So I went to his

I thought you saw him, he was in the hospital bed in the living room. You were staring right at him.

Fursuit vision can be very poor of course.

Like Skippy said, I didn't see him at all; I'm not used to looking thru his head, and I couldn't tell what was in the room (it was a small room and very crowded as it was).

I remember the first time I had to deal with death face to face, in a service manner and I knew that person. They were a High School associate. She had been in a serious car accident and was in a coma

I have performed for some terminally ill children in Florida. It is a hard thing to do. You just have to remind yourself of why you are doing it and try to keep a clear head. You can always quietly cry in your suit to yourself as outside they normally cannot tell what you are doing. I know I have lost it while performing but it is a blessing of being able to help someone else that you can always remind yourself of later.

Hugs, you are a good guy.

What draconis said. Exactly that.

Ive done countless hospital visits. And Ive cried many a time from, after and during, those visits.

You just gotta be there to put that smile on those faces. Give them that moment of happy. As it radiates from them to the young one.

You did a good job. Im proud of ya.
