I don't think we've ever seen a Hollywood star announce he or she was dying, and then promptly go on a whirlwind media blitz before. But Valerie Harper, like her beloved character Rhoda Morganstern, always did things her way, so I couldn't be happier to spend this precious time "with" her. I saw her on "Access Hollywood Live" the other morning at the gym and she was simply beaming, which only caused me to break into tears on the treadmill. (My still-aching foot wasn't helping.) As an encore, an upcoming reunion of the women from "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" on "Hot in Cleveland" is about the best thing I could think of for her ... other than a miracle.
