Kelly, I'm so sorry. I know how much all of this hurts as I went through the cancer and oncologist thing with my precious Sadie a year ago. I had her for 6 more blessed months and had to let her go. Cancer is a horrible thing for us and for our belo…
Kelly, call your vet back and tell them YOU are a basket case...can't they please see you sooner? I hate for you to have to wait until Wed to know. We are all in prayers with you and understand what 2 days more will do to both of you.
What is your dog's breed? (If you have more than one dog, please list a name followed by breed.)
Sadie is a Westie and a little old lady at almost 12.
Zoe is 3, a little love to me, but a pest to Sadie. She keeps Sadie young!
About Me:
I adore dogs! Have ALWAYS had 2 while my kids were growing up; one for each! The kids have gone on to have their own families (and dogs, of course!), but I still have my 'babies'. I love having 2; they are such a comfort to each other.
I lost my precious maltese Tori to auto immune hemolytic anemia 3 1/2 years ago. One day she was fine, the next so desparately ill. My vet tried everything, but nothing worked. I was so despondent I couldn't even look for another baby. My Sadie helped me through that sad time by constantly being by my side. Then for Christmas, my husband, Mom, kids and grandkids all went together (none wanted to be left out!) to get Zoe for me. She was the 1/2 sister of my Tori and when the breeder found out I had lost Tori she called my daughter to tell her she had just had a litter and was saving the only girl for me...God wanted me to have her. She is such a love. Both girls are at my side or my feet at all times. What wonderful little creatures they are.
What is one thing your dog does that reminds you to open your heart and love more deeply?
They love ALL the time and can sense when you need attention. They teach you to love; that's why I had a dog for each child...to try and teach them unconditional love.
Do you have a website or personal page (such as on Facebook or MySpace) that you'd like to share with other members of our community?

Vicki - what you wrote brought tears to my eyes. Your words hold true for so many of us who can't express so eloquently what we feel for our precious and dear companions. I can't imagine my life without them and dread the day we have to say goodbye. I can't even go there.
