| My Mother is dying Just wanted to update you all as to why I haven't been on for awhile. My mother is under hospice care and we thought we were going to lose her this past weekend. I have been very involved with family for the past several weeks. She is not eating or drinking very much....congestive heart failure among other things...she is 87 years old. Copper is regressing a bit with the house training. I think he feels all the anxiety, etc. over this, plus I have been away from home, driving back and forth. She lives 2 hours away. It has been very rough, and I am extremely tired. I will be back with you guys soon, but in the meantime, thanks for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers.

| Ann, my prayers are with you and your family. Sorry to hear about this. I am sure that your little one will be back to normal-they are sensative to all of this too, I am sure.

| Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. We are taking one day at a time. Everyone is calling her a medical miracle. All of the nurses were surprised that she was still with us this morning. I spent 2 nights in the nursing home with her. I really appreciate all of the replies. I know I won't be able to acknowledge all of them, but please let this be my sincere thanks. I will let you know when things calm down.

| Truly sorry to hear about your mother. Losing your parents is one of the hardest times in your life. No matter how old we are, we are not ready to let go. My mom had four major strokes at 57 and lived totally paralized for the last 18 years of her life. As bad as it was watching her slip away an inch at a time for that length of time, I was not ready to let her go. She passed on Thanksgiving day 2000 at age 75 and I still am not over it. My prayers to your family at this sad time. |

| My prayers are with you - Copper will get over having to share you so much. Like babies, they don't understand. Your mother needs you now and Copper will get back into his routine I'm sure. My Mom has just recently had to put in nursing home with Alzheimers and Sabrina doesn't understand why all of a sudden I'm gone every day for an hour or so too, but after a couple of months she seems to know I'm coming back, just like when I was working. Take care Ann. |

My father passed away in January. My mother-in-law 2 weeks later and 2 of my uncles after that. It has just been one of those years. Copper has really been my therapy. He is just always there for me. It is so true what they say about pets being good therapy for people.
