    I wanted to let you all know how much your kind words, your caring sentiments, your beautiful poems meant to me. I know that Squeeks is so happy to know that so many cared for him.

    The circumstances of his passing and it's suddeness were so difficult to believe and accept. I wasn't home from the 2 hr. drive from Boston but minutes before the phone rang. I saw the phone #/name on the caller ID and while I had a second of panicked type thinking, I was really waiting to hear those words..."He did fine; resting comfortably." I was not prepared for what I heard..."I'm sorry, I have some very bad news..." I literally went numb and dropped the phone. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I had just left him, squealing and wiggling and kissing his Mommy on the nose.

    One of the receptionists at the hospital was especially kind and caring. She called me the next day to tell me how very sad and shocked she was to hear that he was gone. She gave me some comfort though. She told me before she left work that night she went by the O.R. and gave him a kiss on the head. She said he was on a nice, soft blankie waiting for the Drs. to scrub up. As they began the procedure, she gave "Dr. Ari" a big thumbs up through the window in the door. At least I know my boy was loved in his last moments.

    And with so many other furry ones here to care for, including Squeeks lonely and now friendless piggie pal Moon, luckily, I'm kept occupied.

    Yesterday was tough. The office of Squeeks "regular" vet called all cheery and upbeat, asking how the little patient was doing. They were so stunned and truly felt saddened to hear that he didn't make it. I admit to having a long crying jag after that. And I still can't clean out his cage. Little bits of his lunch still lay on the floor of his timber hide a way. But, as many of you know, piggies need their play pals, so in a couple of weeks, we'll be going to visit the shelter where both Squeeks and Moon were adopted from, to find another friend for her. Thank you again for being there for me and Squeeks. What wonderful, supportive friends you are. And I know Squeeker would want me to say thank you, too. Love, Sandra
