Hi Fred, Thank you for your very kind response to my message,
This is true I believe in what you say, at present it is purely a matter of facing pain which is intense/extreme out of meditation constantly close to unbearable, and then the facing the closing the eyes is my difficult threshold during the day in pain. But even so, saying this... the difficulty which I refered to in my original message is as you say some "hope" of a result, a miracle, due to pain thresholds and learnings in "contentment". The meditation is simple, nothing could be more so, but this little boy is learning to be a man in facing pain at levels I previously thought impossible to feel while conscious. I have made the first step at declining all drugs offered... because first off, they don't work (a blessing) and.. why drink boiled water during the day and then swallow heavy stuff like that at night? I will stop and drink some hot water, I can feel my 'complaining' expanding some, so I will let it be, and go close my eyes....
