Holiday Guide: Tom & Jerry: Fur Flying Adventures

    Whether you want someone to rekindle their youth by revisiting old cartoons they loved or you want to share your youth with your kids and grandkids, this is a wonderful DVD to buy. There are 14 different cartoons that brought me right back to my childhood years.  It was always fun to watch the antics of Tom racing around frantically trying to catch Jerry.  Meanwhile, Jerry was always just a little too smart to be caught.  Then there were the very few cartoons when they worked together to fight a common foe.  My great nieces loved this DVD.  They wanted to watch it over and over.  I enjoyed watching it with them since it really took me back to my childhood as well.  So it was nice to create that wonderful bond of sharing my past with them.

The doctors still have no clue what caused his seizures.  And they can’t figure out why they are stopping either. They have had him awake for almost a week now.  He is seizure free at this point.  They are weaning him off of the rest of his medicines. We did have some rough points there at first.  He was literally going through detox.  It was scary and sad to watch one so little go through the same symptoms that junkies go through when coming off of their “fixes”.  However, with lots of prayers and love, he has made it through this. We still have a long road ahead of us.  Since he has been laying in bed for almost 3 months, his muscles have atrophied.  They said he will need tons of therapy to get him back on his feet again. Even though he only attended 1 day of the first grade, he was the tallest kid in the classroom.  Now he will have to repeat the first grade again because he m
