My Worry List

“My mom made a list of things I consistently worried about when I was in 3rd grade, and shared it with my pediatrician. She found the list this morning. Every time I learned of a new ailment or world issue, I was convinced it would happen to me. We had a lesson on seizures…new phobia. Had a lesson on scarlet fever…new phobia. Had a lesson on Joseph Stalin (5th grade)…new phobia.”
