Hi Everyone!
It has been a tough month with the fires and transporting animals to get them to safety. The fires have been so devastating and the loss of animal life horrific. Please say a prayer for all of the animals, domestic and wild, that have been lost in this terrible tragedy.
Two weeks ago Monday I lost my friend of nearly 16 years, Medusa, to heart failure. I rushed her to the vet but she died in my arms before we could get there. Medusa was my first rescue and I rescued her from a junk yard when she was about a year old. She was the dirty, scruffy and was pretty wild but she turned out to be my best friend. She grew up with my children and they too are devastated. She was so tolerant of all the rescue animals I brought home and just gave me the look of "here she comes with another one". She loved to lay in the sun and sit on her chair. Sleeping on the bed was always a must. She loved everybody and loved nothing more than to be with her family. My heart is broken but I am very thankful I had her as long as I did and she will always be with me.
Hope continues to do very well and she has lost maybe a pound! She is really enjoying the nice weather and actually being able to see all the beautiful tress, flowers and animals. She keeps me going and is my strength a lot of the time. I look at her everyday and I know I must continue to do rescue work no matter how hard and heartbreaking it can be. She is with me for a very special reason and so I go on.
All of my other animals are doing fine and make my life worthwhile. Hope all of your furry friends are well too.
Thanks for checking in with me. Time seems to get away from me easily. Oh, by the way, I'm going to be a grandmother in August! Take care everyone!
