The troubles with your older son are sad and have added to your stress, but it sounds as if he’s being kept an eye on, so right now you have to focus on you.

Of course you love them and your loss is not very long ago. It’s very natural that you will worry a lot about your other son cos you want to keep him safe. I hope that tonight you get some sleep, you can’t have got much last night. Sending a hug x
