Oh Heather...What a time of it you have been having lately.

You know, I did not have a pet for many, many years after leaving my parents home mainly because I could not bear the idea that I would have to lose them. I have learned from Edwina that I was all wrong and really quite selfish. I hate to use a horribly overdone quote but..."tis better to have loved and lost than never to to have loved at all."

I'm sure that Terry...like Ebony and Gem gave and received great love, regardless for how long.

My thoughts are with you....
