Selma started out in the caption: "I am here. I am not with my son. I am in the place of getting better. needing to believe in this knowing we will never know. Strange. I count on the spirits of this world more than I ever thought. Thank you."

Selma doesn't explain exactly where she is, however she continued with more observations: "This journey is a realization about the breaths around me. More than even my own. I need you."

Selma's followers, including many celebs, responded with supportive comments and encouraging words. Rebecca Gayheart commented: "You are so strong and I'm sending you boat loads of love and light my friend." Brooke Shields shared: "My prayers and love are sent to you from the depths of my heart."

Another commenter asked about Facetime as a way for Selma and her son to stay connected. Selma responded: "no. Makes him sad. I cry."

Selma concluded her post: "I need this boy to see me do things I never thought I could. And I will do my best. It really is gratitude. #arthursaintbleick#jasonbleick my @the_alinker_world family which makes me feel so much hope when we unite to bring these devices to people like me #together. To get us out and moving. Love. In sickness and in health."
