A voice asked if she'd heard from her son in the past 24 hours.

Then she got a call from her son last summer.

Of course he was happy to hear from his son.

She had not heard from her son in more than a year.

Speak from your heart, son, and everything will be all right.

Didn't he have a right to expect the same from his son?

Help came too, she said, from her son, a college student working two jobs.

"I have a message to you from your son John."

A couple of days later he received a mail from his son.

A first step would be to distance itself from its new favorite son.
