Today I have the sad mission of reporting that Sue's Shiloh has passed to the Rainbow Bridge. All efforts to ease her suffering were in vain and this Monday Sue had to do what we have dreaded and that is to help her pass to the Rainbow Bridge where there would be no more pain or suffering and she would once again see her beloved brother, Killian.

Sue's computer has crashed and she has not been able to come here to receive the comfort and support of all who have posted. She indicated that she will try when she can to access Pet Talk from the library.

As expected, Sue is devastated and in tears. Her hope for a few months more with Shiloh was not to be. The pain is fresh and her heart is broken in a million pieces. Please keep our dear friend in your prayers so she can make it through these dark days.

Those of us who have known the strong and beautiful Shiloh for these past years will each mourn her passing. She was a heart dog in every sense of the word.

Good-bye Shiloh. You were *one of our own*.
