Love and the Dragon Mom

Emily and her son Ronan

The Sunday edition of the New York Times yesterday had a remarkable article by Emily Rapp, a writer raising an infant son that she knows will die before he reaches the age of 3. It's an astonishing, understated piece about the value of life and the experience of being a parent to a dying child.  "This is a love story," she writes, "and like all great love stories, it is a story of loss."  

Please, take a look.
