I watched it Saturday. Wonder why Richards letter didn't get read. He's the only one that talked about it

I didn't love this ending for Alex, but I can't say that I have any better ideas. I get that they were trying to make him look honorable, but that failed. Leaving and divorcing Jo with nothing but a letter was not honorable.
Yes, Alex and Izzie got married. Izzie had cancer, they took her eggs before treatment. In the flash backs, Izzie was in a hospital bed fighting cancer. He told Izzie he gave sperm so they could fertilize the eggs.

I googled Alex and Izzie because I didn't remember why she was written out

Quote:
Izzie was fired from Seattle Grace after accidentally giving a patient the wrong dosage of a medicine, which caused the patient to miss out on a much-needed kidney transplant. Even though Alex was partly responsible for the mix-up, Izzie ended up on the hook for it.
In the divorce, he said she could have the embrios. You should rewatch Mere reading his letter, he told her that at the time, he said that he didn't care what she did with them; but once he called her to write Mere a letter for court, he heard kids in the back ground; I don't recall how he found out the kids were his.

Wiki has history for Izzie Stevens

Quote:
Izzie makes a treatment error that endangers the life of a patient, and is fired from the hospital's surgical program. Believing Alex is partially to blame, she writes him a Dear John letter and leaves.[27] Izzie later learns that Alex was not responsible for her lost job, and returns to make amends with him, but Meredith informs her that Alex is moving on. Izzie informs Alex that she no longer has cancer. Although he is pleased, Alex officially breaks up with Izzie, telling her that he loves her but deserves better. She leaves Seattle to start fresh.[28] Several episodes later, Alex informs Meredith that Izzie sent divorce papers, which he signs in the episode "How Insensitive".[29] In the sixth-season finale, Alex is shot and asks for Izzie. Imagining that Meredith's half-sister Lexie (Chyler Leigh) is Izzie, he apologizes and asks her never to leave him again.[30] In the season 12 episode "I Choose You", Alex's new partner Jo (Camilla Luddington) finds an invoice from the fertility clinic that housed Izzie and Alex's fertilized embryos from when she had cancer, and ponders the possibility that he has "a bunch of Izzie babies".[31] In the 300th episode, Alex reveals he never found out what happened to Izzie, but envisions a perfect life for her, always smiling, now that he has moved on and is happy with Jo. While the character was not fully seen in the season 16 episode "Leave A Light On", it was revealed that Alex left Jo and got back together with Izzie, who is now working as a surgical oncologist. The two of them are revealed to be living on a farm in Kansas raising five-year-old twins named Alexis and Eli.

Grey's Anatomy: Everything You Need to Know About Alex and Izzie's Relationship

Quote:
For OG Grey's fans, Izzie's impact on Alex is something embedded in our memory, but for those who have recently climbed aboard the Grey's train and aren't completely familiar with the dysfunctional couple's history, this article is for you. Though, since it's been over 10 seasons since we've seen the two together, it also works as a refresher for Grey's Anatomy fans who don't remember exactly what went down between the two surgeons before Izzie left for good in Season 6. So, let's get in our time machine and break down exactly what happened between Alex and Izzie, and maybe it'll help explain why he would be so drawn to this idyllic life in Kansas.

^ Richard did get a letter! He was reading it prior to his AA meeting, and then threw it away. He spoke about his letter in the meeting instead of having the Alex read-over like they did with Jo, Meredith and Bailey.

I know Richard got a letter; I said I wonder why his didn't get read, I meant it was the only one not read by Alex. I then said he talked about the letter, meaning at the AA meeting

Ahh, sorry. I read your post wrong. I shouldn't post before my coffee!

I liked how they did Richard's letter. His emotions were so real! And they wove in his current story lines, too. I don't mind how they wrapped up Alex's story - I'm just glad that he's no longer 'somewhere else' and we can simply move on from here. Plus, now Jo owns a piece of the hospital. That's sure to cause some drama!

I wonder if she'll keep his last name?

I actually think it's both. Delucca keeps being right, but he's also slowly suffering a psychotic break. It's a bad mixture, because being right makes him think he isn't suffering these symptoms....

(Reminds me of my father who is a hoarder - the current situation is 'proving' to him that he isn't a hoarder because he doesn't need to run out and buy a ton of supplies. Instead, he's convinced that everyone else is a hoarder. Sigh....)

Is DeLuca going to wipeout at 120mph on his bike and die?

I think some of the episodes are interesting. To me it’s a bunch of baby mama/baby daddy’s who should definitely know better. Being surgeons doesn’t make them any better or admirable.

One can be manic w/o being psychotic. He's definitely manic, which can give people an edge. Like perception. Overall, they are doing a good job portraying that.

IDK where he's going on that motorcycle, but high-speed, risk-taking is also classic.
