That was really a very well written and thought out story. I truly enjoyed it.
Like you I do not believe that any story of this nature can truly be realistic as people do not get babied like this.
I do feel though that you did a great job making it about as realistic as possible. The one part of the story that I felt could have been a bit off was when the parents were confronted with Eric's need to visit the Doctor. I know I would have to know why before I took any child to the Doctor. I have a hard time believing that any adult wouldn’t care enough to find out what the problem was first and then deciding that a Doctor visit was the correct approach.
Still that little part didn’t detract from the overall story. Again, I thought you did a great job on the story and I sure hope that you decide to share some of your other stories with us as well.
