Alexander has always amazed me with his depth of love and understanding for and of the adults that have shaped his world. He has been my constant companion since he was born April 14th 2003 and always given me a chuckle with his comments. Understanding Alex the way I do I tried my best to get him ready for this past week when I would have a fairly big operation, be in the hospital, and then need time to recuperate. Thurs the 19th he kissed me and told me how much he loved me and that he would see me soon. I thought well that was easy, seems he's just fine. Friday I had the operation and Sunday morning my son brought Alex to see me. We had a short visit and again I thought well that was easy, he's fine. That afternoon I had a huge setback so asked my son not to bring Alex cause although he seems to handle things well I thought the sight of an additional tube ( this time in my nose )would scare him.. anyways I was able to get back on my feet and home this past Friday. Friday evening my family came home for supper and my little man attached himself to my side, touching and kissing me every few minutes. When we had a few minutes alone he put his hands on my cheeks and stared into my eyes with this ohh so serious look and tells me that I am his dream come true..?? How am I a dream come true Alex? Well Gram, I was so scared when you went to the hospital, I thought I would never see you again, so being able to hug you and touch you is my dream come true.

Ladies I have never cried so much in my life. I had no idea he was that afraid. so I had to let him stay overnight and babysit me Sat. until I was so tired from his constant care that he had to go home to my son lol. But this time he was quite happy to go
