Last year our family lost our little grandson at birth. We all attended a funeral instead of a christening. This was a most difficult time for us as we mourned for our son, his wife, and for ourselves as grand-parents.
At that time I injured myself picking up my grand-daughter, trying to help out as my daughter-in-law was in the hospital. Unfortunately, my assistance was short-lived as I pulled muscles in the area where I had stitches from a recent surgery.
Shortly before all of this happened I lost my Jack Russell, Ernie. He was 18 years old and of course a very important family member.
I was confined to bed with my injury for quite some time. It was during this recuperation that I read "Fool Me Once", by Fern Michaels. The book was delightful story that was filled with Yorkies. I feel in love with the little characters and the rest is history.
From my bed I researched the breed, breeders, and e-mailed various individuals to gain information.
Here I am now with my little Sir Remington. He is a joy and he has helped all of us on the road to healing. |
