Hi - yes, my son is the same way. I guess there are probably many people out there like this. i don't know what to attribute that to. He wasn't always like this. This basically started with him about 2yr.s ago. He gets REALLY worried, whenever he gets anything! It goes into a whole big thing, and we have to calm him down and reassure him. He's very fearful of death. He's always worried that if we (or he) catches a cold or whatever, we're going to die! I'm seriously looking into getting him some sort of herbal rememdy, such as Bach Flower Remedies. They're pretty good. Well, if you find out what causes this, post it,so it can help others! In the meantime, hang in there and stay in touch with curezone.!!!
