People comment on my over 100 pound weight loss and attribute it to my WILLpower, but it is my WANTpower: I WANT to be thin and healthy more than anything else!

Good Morning All,

Today my heart is heavy as I will be saying goodbye to my 15 year old shep Jessica Marie. I rescued her from the shelter 15 years ago and she's been with me through thick and thin. She has been failing aver the last week and now she can not stand or walk on her own. She is "tired" and her quality of life is poor. She has been the best dog EVER and I will miss her terribly.

I am clear that it's time.

With sadness and clarity,

Teresa

Teresa,

My heart goes out to you and as I will someday soon have to face that experience with my dear boy, Dillinger, who has been my best male companion EVER, I can truly empathize with your heartache.  That being said, I am sending you lots of loving thoughts as you and Jessica Marie were blessed for the many years you shared together!

Hugs, Laureen

Teresa--My heart goes out to you! Dogs really do become members of the family and it is so hard to say goodbye to them.  But if you are clear and have clarity then you know it is the right thing to do. 

BIG ((HUGS))!!  My thoughts will be with you today!

Much luv!
Laura

Teresa, you and Jess were blessed to have so much time together.  It seems unfair when it ends.   Sending you a hug.

I'm sorry, Teresa.  That is a heartbreaking thing to have to do.  But you are right - if you are clear and her quality of life is suffering, there is no need to prolong that.

Hugs,

Pam

Big hugs coming your way for you and Jessica Marie - I know how painful it is to lose a loving companion but I was comforted by the fact that I could hold our little Bruno as he went over the rainbow bridge into heaven - jeez, just thinking of it now brings tears to my eyes and its been almost 3 years, but they bring such joy and  love to our lives its hard not to get emotional. I do hope you have someone to go with you today...its a difficult journey to make on your own.

Good morning Pam & PA,

Another glorious workday ahead!  And I'd better get busy with the part of my day that gets me out the door, after work, I'm not sure what exactly I'm doing today, but whatever it is, as least it looks and feels more like summer.

Wishing you all a good day whatever challenges life is purshing at you!

Hugs, Laureen
