11 days and Alex says think about cute puppies

So much is going on. Yesterday we found out that Alex's grandpa and my ex-father in law is very sick. He had open heart surgery a week ago and we thought he was doing well and would be transfered to a recovery hospital soon. Things got worse and his kidneys stopped working and now he is having other complications. He is not awake and and they are giving him 50% that he will pull through this. 

If anyone out there has some good wishes or mojo or anything they can send his way please do it now. His name is Tom Harris and he is an amazing man. Only 69 years old and to young to have all this happening.  Alex told me when I was sad after hearing about Tom that I should not be sad. He said he is not gone yet MOM! and told me to think of cute puppies ( but not puppies in the pound) just cute ones. Kids have a way of seeing thing so clearly. I am lucky to have him on my team. He has been giving me lots of hugs these days. We both need many hugs.

Oh, I really need Tom to make it thought this. We all need him and love him.  Tom is a judge in the city of Fresno California. He is a father of two and grandfather to three amazing kids. He married me to his son in an art gallery in Laguna Beach and cried when he said the wedding vows. He explained that Mike (Mike Harris his son and my first husband) was his baby and seeing him as a man and getting married was absolutely overwhelming to him. How fast time had passed.....he no longer had a toe head baby boy. Mike Harris is with him at the hospital in Northern California. I send all my best wishes to him and the family.
