Love&Appreciate them,,,,

   Hello Friends, I hope all is well with you all! I have enjoyed the feedbacks/emails that I have recently received from many of YOU readers, I hope you all got the responses I sent. So it is still very cold here in my region, with ice and a lot of snow; has made life a bit harder as far as getting from point A to point B. This Blizzard has caused many schools,offices,clinics, and other public places to close for days on end. This past week has been fairly hectic as usual..however today was different in the sense that...the day was routine for the most part except when I got a call from a future radio guest...not only did I find another interesting guest but she is VERY intuitive and gave me some very interesting insight on some things that I have needed clarity on.....Moving on....this evening my 13 year old African Basenji dog-child, died....we believe she did die of natural causes, she passed away in her sleep peacefully. This upsets me very much but at the same time I felt this coming for a few months...I could tell that her age was catching up to her. She was such a sweet and unique dog, she NEVER barked...that is in the Basenji breed. Instead she would sound like a wolf howl or a beast lol....she will so much be missed and I am saddened but I know she is at rest now. I have literally lost three of my dear dog-children in about the past 11 months. First it was my 9 year old teacup chiuahua <(spelled wrong), bubba died on after noon after lunch....I was just finished feeding them and bubba comes up to me and I begin to love on him, then suddenly he went into a seizure.....needless to say I FREAKED OUT! Bubba became totally limp;entire body...I was so shaken I even began mouth to mouth CPR on him...no response yet he was slowly breathing with a very slow heart beat..I rushed him to the Vet...he had died upon arrival. The Doctor said that Bubba's lil heart just stopped due to old age and most likely a stroke too. I asked if he suffered and the doctor informed me he was positive he didn't suffer at all....so months went by. Then on April 23rd 2013 RUCCA,;My (chocolate) Dalmatian, died just a week after her 10th Birthday...She had been laying around and whining a bit for almost a week and acting like she had a flu, so I used what I had to treat her combined with love and affection, but I noticed within ONE DAY a lump on her cheek so I immediatly took her to the VET hospital..after the doctor took blood, did tests, I got the horrible news that my baby girl RUCCA;that I have had 10 years who was with me through so much in my life...had Cancer...the doctor informed me that the cancer had spread so fast that it was through out her entire body and that no amount of treatment could save her.....I may be a grown man BUT I broke down in tears and didn't care who was around....RUCCA was the best dog I ever had in my entire life! So The doctor;which is so kind and caring....came and told me that they could put her at rest or she would continue to suffer....so I had to make the horrible decision to let my baby go back to her creator....As I walked into the surgical room, Rucca had an IV in her front leg, I had some alone time before the doctor came in.....I spoke to her and told her how much I loved her.....how much she made my life positive and that No matter what I will never EVER forget her....and I finally told her that "I know you are ready to go my lil baby"...I got a chill sensation all over my body...as if she was agreeing with me....so the doctor comes back in....she then tells me once she injects the medicine RUCCA would pass after about 10 seconds.....I held her and looked straight into her eyes the entire time....I bursted with tears as I felt the unspoken bond and the mutual understanding her and I had during this....I told her how much I loved her and was going to miss her but also told her its ok to let go.....She slowly went limp in my hands....I watched her eyes literally change instantly and I could feel something unexplainable STILL.....I still get upset some....every once in awhile when I think about her and the last moments I had with her. Now this evening, I am just thinking and realizing more and more how pets really do become family members and how it is very sad to lose one. SO friends if you have a beloved pet. Treat them with love and appreciate them while they still have life in them. Thank YOU all for stopping by...I apologize for such short dry blog today....I'm just seriously exhausted. Thanks again Friends!
