Darin is very sick. The last I heard is that his body has flown into full-on complications. It stirs up a lot of emotion in me because a few years ago my son Jesse was in the hospital for a throat infection when all of a sudden the infection went septic and everything started spinning out of control. I was afraid we were going to lose him. But he came back. I want the same for Darin.<\/p>\n<p>I feel for Darin, his family and his friends. These feelings are true. My concern, yes\u2026 even my love for him is real.<\/p>\n<p>I thought of this older popular cartoon of mine. So I dedicate it to him today.
