| Can I get some prayers sent my way In May I had to move back home from college to take care of my disabled mother, because her health is going down hill. I've been looking for a job that will work around my school schedule (I transferred to the community college in my city) and allow me time to take care of my mom too. It's just not working and I cant seem to figure it out. I did sell some of the dog pajamas I make to people locally, but the number of dog owners around here that allow their dogs to wear clothes are limited. Priscilla is beginning to sense that I am stressed and now she is just laying around all day. How can I not let my stress affect Priscilla? Thanks ahead of time! God Bless you all! |

| Saying a prayer for you. Keep it in His hands. You are doing the right thing. It will work out the way it is meant to. Stressing doesn't help anything. Relax, breathe, and just go with it. What will happen will happen no matter what so don't stress. It isn't good for you OR Priscilla. If you need help to relax and laugh...get Priscilla to play with you. It's good for the soul

| I'm sorry you're going through all these things. And I believe that He will not make you go through things you can't handle. As hard as things are, He's just trying to help you become stronger. Have you tried reaching out to the local pet stores to see if they would let you advertise your custom made doggie clothes? Perhaps you can use winter coming up to your advantage. |

| You're a great person for doing what you're doing. Priscilla and your mom are very lucky. I know it's hard, but you really need to find a way to manage your stress. Stress can make you very sick. Focus on Priscilla, play with her, walk her, love her. Find different free things to do with her. If you need someone to talk to pm me. We're probably around the same age, I've been through similar stuff, and I'm into crafts too. |

| Prayers and BIG hugs for you and your fur-baby. The suggestions about play are spot-on. Play also involves exercise which releases natural chemicals that serve to destress you both and elevates mood. In turn, giving you more energy for more play... a healthy cycle. Are there options for play dates near where you live? |

| Sorry to hear that you are going through some difficult times. Saying prayers for you, your Mom and Priscilla. Our fur babies have a wonderful way of providing some great stress release as well as comfort. When my Mom passed away this past February, what really helped me was reaching out to my friends. I just needed someone to talk to, vent with, etc. My greatest comfort came from our Ragdoll, Charlee, and for a short time, our beloved Yorkie, Angel (she passed away two weeks before my Mom, ugh...). Their unconditional love provided some great stress release. Looking into those loving eyes, and just spending time with them helped a lot. I pray that the good Lord gives you strength as you go through this. Reach out to your YT family, we are here for you! Katheleen |
