I was just sitting at dinner earlier with my hubby and he asked about Jessica, as I had shared this story with him the day it occurred. Even though he is not a Pet Talker and wonders how I can spend so much time here, he was immediately drawn into the sadness of what had occurred. He has asked if there were any updates a couple of times now because it is all so sad.

I related to him some of the questions everyone seems to be raising. I have to admit too that I highly doubt that I would have been on the computer at such a horrible time, but I figure that people under stress often do things that don't make sense.

Well my husband summed it up pretty well. He said that no matter whether the story is true or a hoax it is sorrowful all the way around. If Jessica is gone it is a tremendous loss for us here at Pet Talk as well as her family. If it is a hoax it is also sorrowful because that means there is someone out there who is very cruel indeed.

I have prayed for Jessica's family nevertheless. God knows the situation and if my prayers have been for naught that's OK. I'm sure He didn't mind listening to me.
