When to let go…

Profile Information
- What are your dog(s) names and ages:
- Maui Valentine Jacobson, 15 when she passed
- What is your dog's breed? (If you have more than one dog, please list a name followed by breed.)
- Maltese
- About Me:
- I'm lucky to be married to James Jacobson, and was adopted Mom to Maui, his darling dog. Maui and I bonded much more closely than I would have ever expected, and I loved having my own "special" relationship with her. I miss her every day.
- What is one thing your dog does that reminds you to open your heart and love more deeply?
- Maui cuddled with me at night (James thrashed a bit too much for an old blind dog to feel safe, I think). When she was really ready to fall deeply asleep, I knew it, because she sighed and flopped her little chin down on my shoulder, my neck, my arm, my leg - wherever she was, she just knew I was safe to be around. That trust in me cracked my heart open a little bit more every night.

Sticky Peanut Butter
So Maui recently decided that she does NOT like her medications wrapped in cheese ... so I switched to peanut butter.
Every morning I get out the spoon, scoop up some peanut butter, and carefully wrap the bits of pills (she's so tiny everything is quartered) in the goopy brown stuff.
She loves it!!! But it gets all over my fingers. By the time I'm finished, I feel like a five year old with fingerpaint on her hands - I have to carefully run over to the sink, turn on the faucet without getting p… Continue

Just a note to let you know I received your message. Certainly, I am not trying to interject myself into the procedure. I have limited time. My response was just because you suggested that I might be able to assist.
Good luck with the photo contest and if you want anything from me just let me know.
I looked at the painting of Maui today. It is very nice and I am sure that James appreciates receiving it.

I discovered your e-mails on my computer before I joined. I got three of them, don't know how? So reading about Maui made me take a closer look. I was so impressed with all the prayers for Maui. I had been contacting many animal sites to raise funds for my service dog, I must have hit this site. I think a pet lovers group is a wonderful idea. How did you get so many responces and prayers for Maui if you don't mind me asking. I really want my dog Rusty on a prayer list.
Thanks,
Kara
whether it be for situations concerning health, behavior or
circumstance. All on the list shall be given long distance energy therapy daily by myself and those that have completed Energy Therapy Classes. If you have or know of an animal that needs assistance please email me with their name at
dogstarenergycenter@yahoo.com
Names will be posted as soon as possible and remain on the list for at least 1 month. Here is the link http://www.dogstarenergycenter.com/Healing.html
Animals can use all the prayers and energy they can get.
Thanks, Vyolet
I tried to send you an email to the address shown on the email you sent to me today. It would not go through. I tried two times. I was sending the email to mail@irememberlove.com. I did not know if you wanted me to reply to your email by using this method. Following is the message I tried to send to you earlier today:
Hi Molly,
I am glad you received my suggestion about the "photo contest". I tried to keep a copy of the message after I wrote it and I did not succeed. Since I was also unsure if the message went through I was concerned with the procedure I used. Anyway, I am pleased you received the mail and have interest in the photo contest idea.
Like I have told you I really like your web site. It is always fun to look at the animals and imagine the relationship of the pets to their owners. Plus, in the good photos you can really "feel" the personality of the pet. I am sure you know what I am talking about. My suggestion had its catalyst when I looked at quite a few photos which I really would not have placed on the site--if it were me. Please know that I am not being critical but I would guess you know what I mean.
The idea of a photo contest was to encourage folks to place the best photos on your site that they can. For example, on page 2 look at photo C3 and you will see a small dog at the beach. You really can not tell anything about the photo or the pet. And, on photo D4 the personality of the dog comes out when you look into his eye. (Examples only.)
I do not believe that a photo contest would discourage folks from placing photos and I would guess that you would not want to discourage people regardless of the overall quality of the photos. A contest would have the effect, I would anticipate, of encouraging people to place their wonderful pet photos on your site and the results would be greater quality and greater overall interest.
If people began to see the photos that were selected for the "contest" perhaps then folks would work to improve the overall quality of the photos placed. The better the photos, the better the enjoyment would be while folks looked at the site. People would see the photo that "won" the weekly contest and then say to themselves that they could make a photo like the "winner" of their pet. The idea is to encourage people without them even knowing that they are being encouraged to post better photos.
My background is in electrical engineering but I "grew up" in a photo studio. I started working there when I was 14 years old. Then I completed a photo program from NYI, a photo school in New York. I taught photography when I lived in North Carolina and then started a small photo business here in Tallahassee in 1987. The business is very small but still active although I am "semiretired" from my engineering career.
I am telling you about the photography background so you will know a little more about me and my experience, etc.
To answer your question I would be glad to assist with the photo contest if you wish. I would do this unless something came along that prohibited my time which I do not anticipate at this time. To simply select three photos per week seems to be of little difficulty assuming that this is what you would like to do.
Of course, it would not hurt my "feelings" if you did not want to use my services. I would be glad to make suggestions if you desired and not be the person who selected the "winning" photos or anything else.
In summary, it seems to me that there is no downside to this overall idea but I do not know what all would be involved with posting photos, etc. It seems to me that the work on the actual web site would require the most effort to set up but then the showing of the week's winning photos would be easy once the system was set up.
Let me know if there is anything I can do for you and James in this regard. Like I said above I will be glad to assist if you desire my services.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Many thanks for responding so quickly to my question.
I did what you said and the boxes cleared as you said they would. You must be a computer whiz, lady!
By the way, Maui isn't exactly "blind", she just can't see with her EYES anymore. She is very aware of her people and her surroundings through the other non-physical senses that animals have. People have these senses as well, but we've grown stupid about using them as our ancestors did to stay alive. I guess it's called "progress". I have another word for it!
Have your ever had Maui's aura photographed? I'll bet there are lots of shades of pink, white and indigo blue with many fuzzy balls of light (her spirit guides) around her. I suspect that she is an old spirit from what I've read in Jame's stories about her. After all, SHE taught him to meditate, right?
Just to let you know, a good friend of mine is an Animal Communicator and has several clients in Hawaii who call her here in Pennsylvania for telephone consultations. Her name is Rev. Pamela Saylor, she is a Christian minister and her website is: www.questforhealth.com if you'd like to go online and check out her practice. She's GREAT! When I call her for a consultation with my cats, even the ones who are now "in spirit" join in. I call it a "conference call"!
By the way, if your kitchen has a stainless steel sink, rubbing your hands on the stainless steel gets rid of a lot of nasty odors. When I was a prep cook in restaurants, that is how we would get rid of the smell of fish on our hands, by rubbing them on the stainless steel surface. It's weird, but it works for lots of unpleasant smells.
Thanks very much for your help and I'll let you know if it STAYS that way. I appreciate your promptness.
Lots of HUGS and snuggles for Miss Maui and the rest of the creatures, great and small. God bless you all.
She tried but was not successful.
Oliver and Rio
