Hi everyone,
Sorry I haven't been around to help others through their losses! This past winter I went into a depression that was so bad that I didn't know whether I'd come out of it (not out yet, but functioning again). I lost my mom on Dec. 16, and I lost my dog Farmey on Feb. 8. For some reason I couldn't even come here and share. Even to type a few words seemed like too much of an effort, but I know now that this is where I belonged, and if I had made it here, it could have made a big difference. I'll attach a picture of Farmey (whoops - just tried 2wice and I can't. I keep getting error messages). To give you just a little background, I adopted him 2 years ago when he was a "chained dog", outside 24 hours a day (in MAINE!!), almost 365 days a year. He was 13 then, and shortly after I adopted him, he became ill from tainted pet food ! He survived that and went on to have a fulfilling life. He brought joy to everyone whose life he touched. For the past year of his life, he used a wheelchair/walker on his walks, and he loved using it. He still ran just like a puppy! I miss both him and my mom dearly. I'm sorry about all of the losses you all are experiencing. I will spend more time here and catch up with you. Love to all, Kathy -------------------- Compassion for all animals. www.earthlings.com
