VERY, VERY OT A rant organ transplants/More sad news
Oh Leslie, I'm already grieving for this darling goldie. The sweetest,
best 'dog' I have ever met. I will always remember her that day we went to dog-training class, and I 'handled' Missy while you had Simon. She had that wonderful smile on her face and was bouncing along in front of me - how could I squash such joy, and try to make her walk to heel. Remember how the little boy said that I was not very good with Missy? You will have dozens of such memories. No words can say ... .. In message .com, Leslie & The Furbabies in MO. writes In addition to losing my brother this morning.... we just got back from a vet appointment. My beloved, precious 10 yr. old Golden Retriever, Missy, has a very aggressive, fast growing cancer in her gum area right under her nose. She may have a month or two left. I can't take much more today. Leslie -- Best Regards pat on the hill |

dear Leslie, I'm so sorry to hear all your news today. WHat terrible
news. I'm so sorry for the loss of your brother. There really are no words that can help. I hope you know you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. I know you have given Missy a wonderful life. Your heart is so big for these wonderful pooches. I hope she will be comfortable as possible and I am really glad she has had you there for her.
