That was the approach I instinctively took with my son last night. I hope it has an effect after the big hysterical meltdown.
He did talk a little bit about it and did seem proud of what he had done to help, but he expressed most through a headache and a stomachache. He seems mostly better this morning.
Being a parent to my father is a lot harder though. He scares me when he yells and I instinctively try to do as he wants. I guess if he'd have still been on the floor in a few hours I'd have had to call the emergency people, but...
Thanks for the bearhug. :) I needed it. I'm not doing this transition at allll well.
