Hi Purr!

Thank you so much for the encouragement! Yes, it is hard seeing those cards & for things to be as they are now, I know you can relate.

I took my dog to this holistic vet 2 weeks ago, she was having some kidney failure & not eating. Recheck today & she has gained back some weight & is eating better. She still has problems but he said she has been staying strong for me b/c of what I've been going thru. Yes, they have been great companions with everything that has been going on. She does seem better & he thinks she is better too. I've never been to a holistic vet or doctor before, it is strange but with her improvement I'm becoming a believer. She is on lots of supplements but so far so good.

I want so much to call my xH & tell him about what is going on but I know I can't. When I left the vet this afternoon, normally the first thing I would do is call him, so that was hard. These dogs were like our kids since we couldn't have any & I would have thought he would have wanted to hear from them. He knew she was having kidney failure, I told him when he was here a month ago. This dog has really been closer to me & is more like my dog but still he cared for her & the other one still looks for him. It's sad when you can't explain so they understand what is going on. I'm sure it's like that with kids too, probably worse.

Thanks for being here for me!

You hang in there also.
