She happened to have coffe at the Dunkin Donuts in Andover that was on our way to Cleveland's (the healer). She told me to stop and see her someday so she could meet Alec. So we did and they were both so excited to meet each other.
Then one day Alec was in the pool, and we have this plastic thing that floats around the pool with chlorine in it. Alec named it "Joan". After my client Joan. We have no idea why, but that's Al-- always so silly. Whenever it came near him he'd yell " JOAN". He'd get so excited and spin around in his float giggling and cracking up. He always had the best sense of humor.
I told Joan that Alec named our chlorine container after her, she thought this was hysterical.
We all still call the chlorine thing, "JOAN".
