He's gaunt and exhausted, but seeing him was not the kick in the gut I was bracing for. Not locked in my room sobbing. Was locked in my office sobbing twelve hours ago, though. Having my folks to look after makes it easier to keep it together; when I'm by myself and people are being nice to me is when I fall to bits.

I totally get what you mean, though, about it being easier to keep yourself together when you have someone else who needs caretaking. Just please remember to take care of you, too.
