When someone you love is hurting

You know they are hurting and it cuts you into a million pieces.

You want to do everything.  You’ll do anything. You will do whatever is in your power to make them stop hurting but you feel like you can do nothing.

Watching people you love suffer is not just painful. It takes everything out of you. You’re so distraught that you can actually feel some physical side effects. It makes you feel unwell and always under the weather.

How is it possible that you feel the hurt just as much as them?  You are not experiencing what they’re experiencing, but you also hurt when they hurt.
