Steve,
While I somewhat disagreed with Ted about the previous images where the
shallow dof put the focus of the viewer on the foreground person, I felt
that on an emotional level the background person out of focus made a point
about importance and hence the image worked for me.

This current posting however makes the role of the father secondary which in
the view of supportive parents a problem.  If this was a divorce proceeding
then a very important statement; but for worried parents possibly not the
correct thing to state visually.

Your work in these very emotional situations is very strong and I don't know
how you can step outside of being a doctor and into a photographer with a
very different emphasis.  Keep posting from your world, this time I hope
that I never have to enter yours.  The south of France would be good, the
world of terribly sick children is not such a happy place.
