DS had day surgery mid last week. I was there when he went under and just after he woke. His Teddy was there the entire time but his absentee parent was once again absent.

Things have been healing quite nicely physically, however emotionally things are a little... off... he is extremely anxious about me leaving, to the point he will get completely inconsolable... Im not sure if this is just an unfortunate coinciding phase or if there is something from the surgery that has started this. He wont tell me why he doesnt want me to leave, just that he doesnt want me to go anywhere and that he wants me to stay with him.

Ideas on the cause and how to handle it would be very welcome? I dont know what to do.
