The passing of Jessica has reaffirmed in my mind what I've always known in my heart, that life is fleeting and unpredictable, sometimes sweet and often unbearably painful. Our friends, our pets, are gifts given to us by God to grace our lives with love, laughter and companionship. During her time with us on Pet Talk, Jessica, our friend, graced all of our lives with her kindness and compassion. And with her passing, she has given us all a very special gift..a bit of time to pause, reflect and to give thanks for the wonderful, caring, supportive circle of friends we have in our very special Pet Talk family. Thanks to you all for the countless times your love, support and generosity of spirit have given me hope, made me laugh, brightgened my day, and eased my pain. I treasure EACH and every one of you and for me, there are no finer friends on earth. There are many with whom I have developed a very deep and special bond over the past few years. To them, my heartfelt thanks for always being there for me. And of course, many thanks to Karen and Paul for making this all possible
