Looks as if Alexander flies to Az .We LOST.I think? Not as bad news as first thought!

[DrKym]

Your welcome, I really wish we had more to say. Gary will stay in touch as we still don't know if we are flying in to Az or not. I am really trying to be a good Mom and not let the stress show, but Alex asked today if he is going to the same school as his brother. I suck . I ran to the bathroom and bawled. Beat me later but all I could say was "it depends" how awful.

My husband is sending his prayers too. I can't pray enough that this works out in your favour. Someone needs to save that little boy. They are not making it easy for you to do that but I know it will all be worth it in the end.

[DrKym]

Please thank your husband and give a hug to yourself, It means so much to have this "cyber family" to lean on. My grown daughters are starting a prayer tree for their tiny brother as they call him, Karen has involved her neice and all the campers (purer prayers don't exist than those from a child) Dorothy has helped sustain me with timely emails, Donna bless her and her naked baby mooshoo has lent a willing and staunch ear, cyber has her furkids involved, I cannot even name all those that I am leaning on and that my son will thank in person on video. He knows we are praying for his health and saftey. He tipped the scales today at 38.9 pounds that is 2 pounds 3 ounces in a month in our care.

Oh, the old disapearing act eh!! I thought I was the only person who did that sort of thing.

You are being a good MOM , hopefully, Alex will return to school in Illinois.!!!!

Praying every minute of the day !!!!!!

[cyber-sibes]

A hopeful update. Please hug Alex for us, and tell him that our beautiful Star is from Illinois, and if she was there, she would give him a great big kiss right on the nose! She loves kids, I really wish we were there so he could meet her. Still praying....

[DrKym]

Thank you! and send Star a hug I am sure in her vast heart she knows a babe is hurt! I know this because my own 2 are glued to him the past week. I don't know how they know these things but they do and I stopped questioning it years ago. Maybe in their fur is the only place all the secrets can be told, and I believe they hear them and understand them.

[Catty1]

Two pounds 3 ounces! WOW.

I hope Gary gets THAT documentation to show the judge this weekend.

How is Alex coming along that way? Hair starting to grow a bit?

I am so glad he has you and his dad, and his skin sibs and fur sibs!

For anyone to look between the two possibilities - it is BEYOND common sense that your home is HIS!

hugs!

[Corinna]

Add Montana with 2 praying. I went through something simmilar with my brother .His wack job wife was meeting the ferroes and using her mini van for hooking.But becouse he was native american and she was a lily white girl for 7 years they fought in court. Finally the children found a lawyer who asked for it to be put in the native courts (judge was so glad to get rid of the case) She finally lost and he got full custody. Good Luck.

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Prayers still on the way from Kansas!!!

I will bug God until he answers this by letting Alex stay with you all!!!
(believe me I can NAG too)

[Karen]

Will raise Alex in prayer in church tomorrow, and I'm singing, I'm the "special music" so will do "Precious Lord," for you, Alex, and his Dad and another friend who needs prayers at the moment. Do you know the song? If not, I can post lyrics, but I thought it was appropriate.

Ten a.m. service, EST time, in case your ears are burning right about then!

[DrKym]

Thank You!
Gary called and Jasper and Alex will be flying out Monday for an appearance on Tuesday 1:30 AZ time.So we will pray and hope. I cannot make the trip as the tickets are outrageous on short notice so those 2 will fly and Adrian and I will wait and pray. No I don't know the song but I trust you Karen.

[Karen]

No I don't know the song but I trust you Karen.

Here's the song, a gospel classic, written by Thomas Dorsey
(not Tommy Dorsey the band-leader, different guy):

Precious Lord, take my hand.
Lead me on, let me stand.
I am tired, I am weak, and worn.
Through the storm, through the night,
Lead me on to the light.
Take my hand, precious Lord,
Lead me home.

When my way grows drear,
Precious Lord, lead me near,
When my life is almost gone.
Hear my cry, hear my call.
Hold my hand, lest I fall.
Take my hand, precious Lord,
Lead me home.

When the darkness appears
And the night draws near,
And the day is past and gone,
At the river I stand.
Guide my feet, hold my hand,
Take my hand, precious Lord,
Lead me home.

[Catty1]

Did Gary give you ANY indication whether to be hopeful?

I know he can't lead you on.

Maybe tell dear Alex that when you see him again, you're going out for ice cream!

That way, you don't have to say "see you soon". I think you WILL - but you know how stupid the legal system can be!

Sounds like Gary is a good guy...

HUGS! and prayers

[Dorothy39]

Oh Dr.Goodnow ----We will pray at 10:00a.m. E.S.T. while Karen is singing. "Precious Lord"


You have touched our heart and souls with your struggle .I know that all of you are in GOOD HANDS.


Tender prayers will be upon wings--- for Alex.
