My dad is in the ER. Andrew's grandpa. It hurts my heart to think that he might die while Andrew is doing time. The last time my dad saw Andrew he told him, "You will be o.k. I'll see you when you get out".
I think he will be o.k. He collapsed at a restaurant. But when the paramedics arrived, he had a steady heartbeat and good blood pressure. Nevertheless, we never know how much longer he will be with us. I am most concerned about my mom. She has been his caregiver the last few years. She is a retired RN and these last few years have brought them very close together.
I talked to Andrew on the phone. Julia had told him about GPA. I told him I thought GPA would be ok.
"I know", he said.
He asked me if I could order him another book. This made me smile. I am always happy to get books for my son!
This time he wanted fiction. He asked about "fantasy", I didn't think that was the right genre for him. When I described it and told him "The Hobbit" is considered fantasy, he did not sound so interested.
I suggested suspense. I recently finished the "Jane Hawk" series by Dean Koontz. It's fast paced and intriguing, and not too scary or disturbing.
He liked the sound of that one. So I ordered the first book from Amazon just now.
The Silent Corner, Book #1 of the Jane Hawk Series by Dean Koontz.
I hope he gets it soon. It will be so fulfilling to discuss a book that I read with my son.
Today is Day 21. He's been in 3 weeks. I hope next week they decide where they are sending him. And I hope to see that release date go down by at least 4 months!
More later....
