I realize all are welcome to read this! 

 

Mary, I wanted to THANK YOU SOOO much for your compassion for my friend & neighbor who was losing her Golden Retriever!!  {the dog did pass 2 weeks ago & as I rather expected, PB is “inconsolable”!!!}  When a person gets like that I almost don’t know what to say – b/c frankly they will not ACCEPT comfort!  And then it feels like anything/everything I say is the “wrong” thing!!  ☹

 

Generally I try to not be negligent in responding to email.  But oh vey, as they say…. My own life has been filled with such drama & trauma lately!!

 

‘sides, every time I’d make my way to the computer – I’d get sidetracked & actually forget what I came for!  Ha!  (age play into that?!   😉   yet it’s EASY to get sidetracked for anyone – what with the internet just SCREAMING at us – you know, can’t even look at a site without 50 flash ads in your face!  Grrr!!  Annoying!

 

Though your heart is so precious & compassionate towards dogs & dog lovers & you are so greatly appreciated…. Yet PB would be MORTIFIED if she even knew I put that prayer request online for all the world to see!!  Thus, it’s best to not send a card.  Though your gesture is generous & much appreciated.

 

Please just pray for her!  We say “just” as though that’s like we’re doing nothing – when in fact, oftentimes it’s the BEST thing we can for one another!!  She’s a lifelong Presbyterian and yet still conservative & expects to see Jesus soon.  I try to comfort her with that, too!!  That she WILL see her loved ones again!!  BOTH PEOPLE AND PETS!!!!!!!!!

 

Thank you, Mary, so much for understanding!!

 

I’m sending you a CYBER HUG!!!

 

Till we officially meet in heaven!!
