Well, some days just don't go the way you think.

We started off by loading up the boys in the car to head to a garage sale. Jefferson slipped getting into the car and hurt himself. He was crying and would not move - so we raced to the emergency room. X-rays indicated a nasty spiral fracture in his shoulder, and they made arrangements for us to head to a special surgery center in San Mateo. We arrived with a heavily medicated Jefferson (he was stoned), and we were told the bones were weakened from cancer and there was no way to make him comfortable, so we had to say goodbye.

All of us will miss his huge heart and loving spirit. 

I hope Roosevelt, Endora, Belle, and everyone on the other side of the rainbow bridge take good care of him. 

Jefferson, aka Rod, aka U R Handy Man (track name).

We'll miss you!
