CM on A Gifted Man; astrocytoma on Grey's

I can't stop watching all my TV shows: House, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, A Gifted Man--medical shows that always have an optimistic outcome and these days I keep waiting for them to JUST once have a realistic outcome.  I know, I know, who wants to watch a show that is supposed to be escapist fantasy and end up in a sad depressed puddle on the couch?  But it would make ME feel better to have those TV people deal with the really hard stuff...that thousands of us normal people have to figure out...how to keep going on when the outcome is tragic...When we discover we have no control and there isn't a miracle?

Aiden movie

This is a movie Aiden made of himself, just a few weeks before he died. I think on the same day as the heaven video.   Blogger didn't download it very well, but I like to hear his voice and I thought that you might too.  I usually stay away from watching the videos, but sometimes I can't help it and, like pouring salt in a wound, sit and watch them all.

Abby is babysitting Nate's brother's 2 year old son and I can't explain why, but it is hard for me to think of Abby with someone else's son.  She seemed to have fun with him today, though, and I know that the money will be helpful to them.
