Yesterday when I was over here I sat down with my Memaw to sort through photos. We knew it was coming so I wanted to get it done before it was too hard to do. And I'm glad we did, because it is hard to now.

Memaw and Papa have three dogs, but one was soley Papa's, his boy Maytag. That poor dog is so lost and so gloomy. When they got Papa dressed to take him, we let Maytag on the bed for one last time and he just layed down between Papa's legs and wouldn't moved. Poor, poor boy.
When my ex-FIL was being transported to the hospital, the family knew that they weren't going to see him again and Sheba, the family Eskimo Spitz, chased the ambulance several miles to the hospital. They couldn't get her to leave and she laid outside the hospital until they finally had to carry her away. Lovey sweet dogs are such wonderful companions and Maytag is missing his Papa so. This is so bittersweet. (((HUGS))) to you and to sweet Maytag.
