I'm friends on Facebook with a guy from high school who is doing pretty much this with a daughter who got into a serious accident and suffered a brain injury. He has tens of thousands of followers now and posts constant photos of her (but not the multiple other kids). I just went and scrolled through and it's obvious why - the few regular type photos of himself etc. get one or two likes. The ones of the permanently mentally disabled daughter get a thousand or so each.

When I was living on the streets I was doing some odd jobs for them and they went so far as to let me live in their house for a week while I got on my feet and found a place to stay.

This is not a rigorous observation. As bizarre as contemporary society might be, we nonetheless have unparalleled access to the greatest minds and depths of human history. The modern Marxist supposses the fault of our societal psychosis stems solely from the ruling class. Inversely, he modern neoliberal believes that illness is solely contained in the individual. The fact of the matter is that we are dealing with a weak, comfortable person who in truth revels in this banal comfortability and a unscrupulous serpent with no qualms about maintaining the formers hedonism. Any position that solely blames the individual ignores a parasite, any position that solely blames the system ignores a cancer.

It is tawdry and tactless and exploitative, but part of me sympathizes with her. Maybe it was narcissism. Maybe she is in pain and doesn't know how to get rid of it. She probably has never been taught restraint, the importance of honor and privacy for the dead. She acts in a way which she has learned from observing others. She probably thought the article could be something beautiful, a signpost to say that her son existed, that regardless of its short shelf-life, the article might spread out over the internet like some final vigil for one gone too soon to eternal sleep.
