Having small children, this emotionally hits me, the fatigue in his eyes, the blood, the medical setting. Quite emotional. |

Have to admit I find it disturbing to see blood on the sheet. Although the child seems completely wrapped up in whatever he's watching on the phone, so maybe the blood doesn't bother him. |

Heartbreakingly poignant image with many levels. Actually, a consummate portrait. I hope he is all better soon. Thank you for sharing this personal moment. |

You're getting about 30,000,000 comments on this I bet... so poignant... such a moment in time... Photographically, a difficult shot with the overhead angle and more of a journalistic feel. Without context we can only imagine what is going on for this guy. I would almost (just almost) think staged shot... except for the telltale bracelet on his arm... so this is real and it breaks my heart even more. Just took a moment to pray for this child, for their healing and the comfort of their family in this situation.
I truly hope this ribbons. I don't give 10s lightly and I will for this photo. Not just for sentiment, but for the courage to share this. Thank you. |

This is getting my only ten, but there are some things that bother me.
1 - I can see your legs.
2 - Can't figure out where the blood came from.
3 - I would've shown just slightly more left arm so it's readily apparent he's in the hospital. Just to make things more obvious for other voters.
4 - For some reason the title. I know it's because of his shirt, but it just doesn't seem to fit. |

Certainly has me wondering what is going on.
Seems very journalistic in nature. |

I find this very hard to vote as my only response is that I hope he gets better soon, poor little lamb. |
