Can I asked what a "bonus son" is?

All my blood family has passed. I do have family on my wife's side but it is not the same.

My wife and my dog are my best friends and are always there for me. Seems my dog reconigizes a bad day really fast and smothers me with animal love.

I too developed PTSD in later life from previous life trauma which spread into anxiety/panic disorder. Medications, great medical and mental specialist at Mayo and my best friends have allowed me to realize I am lucky (even at 78) to have such best friends and a full life.

Technically, they are stepsons, but I am so lucky...and blessed, to love them ALMOST as much as my own sons. They "grew up" and turned out to be very good men. They always make me feel totally welcome and cared for. Of course, that took about 15 years to develop. haha

My depression comes from severe fatigue and chronic pain, but I am very blessed to have a loving, faithful husband, who is very patient and kind. I wish you the best.
