RE: Thank You --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Life does throw curves doesn't it! I'm sorry about your dog. I understand how you feel because we had to put our 10 yr old dog to sleep about 4 weeks ago. I feel so bad and tend to push it out of my mind every time her face creeps in. She was my best friend - always knew when I needed a head on my lap and a big kiss. We are planning on doing alot of camping this year so I'm hoping the serenity of my surroundings will quiet my mind. My husband had a spinal injury last June which has changed our lives forever. The upside is that we were told he could lose the use of his legs as well and I have never prayed so hard in my life as during that surgery. I gave his care over to God and even the doctors couldn't believe his legs are fine. Some of the plumbing doesn't work but we can deal with that. I am so blessed and I can't believe how I have come so close to losing it all. I am so grateful for another chance to get it right and this forum has made a big difference to me. I's wonderful not to feel so alone even when I can't get to a meeting. I gave my 12 and 12 book to someone who I thought needed it more than me (how arogant of me) so I guess I better go get another one. Have a great day. Julia
Been thru this before, it's the third dog. I just adopted her from a distant family member, who moved. I felt committed to him for her well being. She just fit so well into our life and was so young. Anyway time to move on. It's been exactly a week. I keep reliving the accident. I have another dog, but this pup was just a super dog. Maybe she had another job to do. Maybe someone else needed her more than I did. God only knows. Sure sounds like u had your share of problems, guess were fournate just to be here. Miracles do happen, guess were all one. Hang in there you'll do fine. Take care of that man of yours. I still have my 12 and 12, held on to it all the years I was back out. Funny When I came back in I dug thru my dresser and found old madallions and anniversary cards etc, and treasured them.
