HUGS to you. I am so sorry you are having such a rough time at the moment. With all the GOOD you do, you deserve to have nothing but the easiest time, and be blessed every day.

You make such a difference in these precious creatures lives, and at such a huge sacrifice! I pray that tomorrow is a better day - PLEASE look after yourself.

Remember what Jim Willis said in his peom "We Are Their Heroes"

The entire poem is touching, but I especially wanted to quote the following:


Be kind to yourself, remember your needs
and those of your family and friends of every species.
If you give everything, what will you have left for yourself,
or for them?

AND

A kind word and a gentle touch can change a life.
If a seething anger wells up within you, because people are the problem,
remember your humanity and that people are also the solution.

AND LASTLY:

Your rewards will not be material, but they will be meaningful,
and the courage of your convictions can survive anything.
We are small boats cast adrift on a cruel sea, but someday
the tide will turn toward a safe harbor. No matter how dark
the storm clouds, or deep the pain of heartbreak - never forget:
We are their heroes.


(((HUGS)) to you. You are in my prayers tonight.
