I reply to me! The comments are all still there, behind the scenes. Will just have to see if I can get them to show up. And get rid of the “around the web” thing down there.

Disqus has apparently killed all my beloved comments. I’m working on it…

Belle was one very lucky dog—not only did she have a wonderful family that loved her and will keep her in their hearts forever, she has had her life recorded in your elegant writing that has made her so real to those of us that never met her that we also will remember her fondly.

I need to find some sort of “like” plug in so I can show my appreciation for each and every post here…

My condolences to you and the family on losing such a perfect friend. She obviously went with a glad heart to have known the love you gave her.

What a blessing to have this time of grace, a time for that special sharing. Thank you so much for sharing this time with us. To pass your last times with those you love and who love you, that surely is the way to go.

Thanks!

Six weeks is great…I knew right from the start that we wouldn’t have that long. As soon as the vet saw her and all the pieces came together, combined with the rapidity of the changes in the days between making the appointment and going in…

Well, I’m glad we had two.

I am so glad that Belle had a good couple of weeks! My Sunny got six weeks from diagnosis to leaving us. Belle was, indeed a “belle,” and a beautiful girl, and I’m glad things went gently for her.

Kendra, I’m SO glad. I hope you can always remember the good things–let those overlay the very difficult time you’ve had.

Jeanne, yes. My dogs have always made it very clear to me. The hard part has always been the days leading up to it–as in this case, worrying whether I can make things work as well as possible, especially given that there’s usually a third party involved (vet). I’m really grateful that for Belle, they did.
