I so enjoyed receiving your kind response, especially reading about Sissy's kisses. Oh, man, I sure do miss those dog kisses!!!

Thank-You for your comforting words, for typing the name of my dog so that I know another human being knows her name. I think she is with Jeb too. Hopefully he is still the stud he thought he was.

We can help each other with words, but our Lord is the refuge in this storm. Tell Diane the same, she is hurting as well.

When ever you feel utter despair, know that there are more of us who feel the same way. Each day is a drudgery. Never feel that you cannot type a few words to a 55 year old living in Charlotte, Michigan. Hey, we are from the same country!!!! Please give Sissy a big hug for me Bob. I am so afraid of loving another dog because, I know , they do not live as long as we want them to. I can't go through another dog's death.

Your contact is like sunshine, honest.

One day at a time--
