Oh Sandra, we are sorry that you are in such a dreadful, uncertain situation. We will all pray that your husband, Star and Cody's dad, is safe and just cannot get through because of all the phone traffic in and around the major cities. They said on the news that all cell phones out in New York. We all hope he is safe, and that he is able to reach you and reassure you soon.

For Sandra, for her husband, and for everyone around the world whose lives are touched by these tragedies, let us have a common time of prayer for the Pet Talk community.

I suggest we all take a moment, maybe 5 minutes, at 8:30 pm Eastern time tonight, which will be 5:30 on the "left coast" to have a communal moment of prayer, for our country our friends, or families and our world.

Will you join me?
