Does this wish also comes to your mind? It is really difficult and sad when the one you love is sick or suffering from a pain. How I wish we can transfer it to us. For me, it's better that I am the one who is suffering than her. I would rather choose to be sick forever than to see her suffering from pain or sickness. Yes, we can do something to make them feel well, but still, it's very hard for us. We want the we love to be safe and always fine, that's why every time he/she gets sick, we are really getting worried. Well, I really wish that we can really get the sickness of the one we love.. How about you, do you feel the same? It would be nice to hear from you. Happy myLotting!

It is something that all mothers feel towards their children. If my little girl is in pain I swear that I can feel it too, it is the most bizarre feeling. Before I had her I used to hear about the mother child bond and at the time I thought it was exaggerated nonsense. I was so very wrong. My child grew inside me therefore she is a part of me and although she is physically independent on me now she will always be a part of me. I have felt I wanted to take pain away from my husband too whenever I saw him suffering but it is a different experience to the one when my little one is hurting.

If my parents and any of my four siblings got sick I only wished I had special magic to cure their illness in instant. It's always a bad feeling hearing one of my direct family is in danger or in pain or got sick, I will never feel okay.

I guess this is the normal reaction if those you love are in pain. This not only apply to your partner but to the kids if you have any. I can take it if it's my partner who is suffering because i know she can take the pain, although it's hard. But it's harder if you have kids, when your child lay helpless and in pain it's more painful for the parents. You'll know what i'm talking about once you have kids of your own.

In short i can say, we can die for the loved ones than let them die.. This is how i feel when my wife gets a slight fever. I will go very dull and depressed. Donno it may be a slight fever, he lays in bed and that puts me moody. I will pray god, please give me all this and worry not her..those times are really tough ones i cant bear :(

Yes, I have felt like this in the past and I can fully appreciate your situation. I think it is important to remember though that each of us has our karma to go through and it acts like a life lesson. As much I would love to take away my loved-ones suffering, I can see that this is impossible and can shorten the illness by looking after them.

a lot of times i feel the same.
i thought i can have the apnea that my son has now. i pity him seeing how difficult his breathing while sleeping. i know and i feel the hardship he's into...
i also thought i can have the heart problem that my wife has...
but sometimes, i feel the other way. who will look for the money for the medicines? who will work for us? how will their lives be if i am the one who's sick?

..hi.. you're right.. Whenever Is aw my daughter suffer from sickness or my father experiencing so much pain, I really like to get that sickness away from them.. sometimes, I would even pray that God transfer that sickness to me so that I won't be seeing my loved ones suffer.. However, that's very impossible.. The least thing I can do pray that God will heal them or suffice their sufferings..

Yes i feel that way too, being a mother. i really wished sometimes that i take the suffering from my child.But this is not possible.
So the best thing we should do is be healthy and strong so we can take care of our loved ones who are sick.
That is the best that we do so far.

This is true especially when we see our love one suffering from pain! we are thinking of transferring the pain/sickness to us,I think we cannot bear gazing at our love one suffering from any pain or sickness as they do the same for us! But unfortunately we cannot have it transferred to us,so all we have to is to pray for them to recovers from that sickness.
Happy myLotting!
