I truly thank you for giving people an opportunity to share what they feel in their hearts about our precious babies. I write many times trying to give people the wisdom of experiences I've had and mostly trying to help others, but in the process it is helping me to heal some. I found Yorkie Talk last August when Ashley was getting pockets of gas in her stomach. I read mostly the Sick and Emergency forum, but then I ventured outside to others. I was so amazed at this wonderful community. Ashley was fairly healthy, but I still was afraid of losing her because she was 16. After thirty years of having yorkies, I still have learned so much, and coming here this past year is also therapeutic for me. I love hearing the joy and love that people feel because of their babies. You seem to always be there to help others to offer encouragement and share your knowledge. This thread and many of the other threads that I've read throughout the year demonstate how compassionate you are. Again, I hope you don't mind and I don't mean to be taking your thread in another direction. |
There is no hijacking going on, just wonderful people reaching out to share, and to help one another.
I am so happy that you found a way not only to heal yourself but in doing so to reach out to others to share, and to help in some way their own healing.
Your writing in my opinion is very evocative, very heartfelt, and touches all.
I look forward to the day when you introduce your new pup to the group
