CamiSu	Folklore: Gallows Humour-laughing at death/disease (205* d)	RE: Folklore: Gallows Humor-laughing at death/disease	15 Mar 09
Villan-- Follow this for some humor and a blog about living with a severely autistic child. The cartoonist's son is a middle teen and on the far side of the scale. Her comic family has an autistic son as well, and the humor can be biting or gentle, but is also funny in the "If I don't laugh I will probably go crazy" vein. And isn't this what all of it is? My husband also died of cancer a bit more than a year ago. We had plenty of humor around the house, and in the last year and a half, a fair amount of gallows humor. If we don't laugh, we cry, and crying all the time is also a sure way to the loony bin. As Joe commented somewhere up there, we laugh WITH, not AT... and without the love there is no need for the laughter, because we simply don't care. CamiSu
