I've been gone awhile...
Just didn't have the energy to post. Finally lost my miracle girl Ryley the Sunday after Thanksgiving. I've been so very sad but I am so grateful for the past three years while her brain tumor and eyeball tumor were in remission. She was so happy and felt so good then. It was a difficult decision to put her down but God made it very clear that it was time and couldn't wait. She started having seizures and soon they were happening every hour. The vet said her brain couldn't recover in between.

My Lili was so sad, so even though I wasn't quite ready, we added a sister this past Monday. Her name is Stella. Aka Wild Thing. I don't love her yet, but I will. I'll post a photo when I can figure out how to resize the file.

Have surgery this coming Thursday. Benign tumor. Surgeon said I'll feel better before I'm fully healed, so I plan to spend a lot of time reading. Even after the Christmas present depletion, my pipeline should be in good shape. I planned ahead.

Sorry for your loss. SURELY hope you're much better after the surgery and VERY glad it's benign.

Please let us know how everything goes.....Prayers and thoughts for you and yours.

Hey Alb, sharing the same moment here so sending air hugs your way.

Just lost Jazzy because she got paralyzed again in her back legs and the docs said steroids wouldn't fix it this time. Our Westie was the "little sister" so we are really making sure she gets plenty of attention (distraction) and she is handling it better than I thought she would so far.

Remember that both you and Lili are grieving but Stella may not be so be patient with her if she is trying hard to be part of the family and has miss-steps along the way.

Don't feel that you need to "rush to love" her just focus on getting to know her personality and be accepting that she is in a brand new world and might be feeling some anxiety while really wanting to fit in and please.

Good luck with the surgery and hit the library to stock up and enjoy some good books.

So sorry to hear the news. And, all the best for a uber fast recovery. Keep us updated.

All the best for a speedy recovery of your body and heart. We are here as prescribed by your doctor.

Sorry to hear of your loss. But it is good to hear from you again. Prayers out for you!!
