Also if when I reach that stage, Patti, can I move to a place close to you so you would help me see my babies? lol You are an angel to take the time out of your life to ensure Carol gets to visit with her darling. There is a special place in this world and in heaven for people like you. I can't even imagine having a person so special as you in my life to help.

Bless you darlin..and huge prayers and love to Carol and Nickki.
Thanks everyone. I love our visits so much. I take so many pictures and each one shows the love they have for each other.
A little background: I met Carol about 15 months ago at the senior bldg my Dad lived at. I was drawn to her by Nikki. After talking to her a few times I found out she couldn't afford t o get Nikki groomed anymore. So I offered to groom him. She is a vert proud women and at first refused my offer. Then a few days later she left a note on my dad's door saying that if the offer was still good she would take me up on it. As I got to know her better I found out she didn't have money for groceries or medicine. Nikki always had food, but did not eat much since his teeth were in horrible shape. I took Nikki to her vet and he was so kind to cut me a deal to get Nikki's dental done. He charged 400 for over 900 in extensive dental work. I started bringing him cans of California Natural and he started eating really well. I made sure Carol ate as well. Her kids were estranged from her as the last time she had a stroke( 3-4 years ago) and was in the hospital for 3 days, they gave away her other yorkie and greyhound. I promised I would not let that happen to Nikki should anything happen to her. Well, this past February she had another stroke and will never be able to live on her own again or have Nikki. I took him home and then notified her family she was in ICU. We did not want them knowing until Nikki was safe with me. So Nikki will always have a home with me. He was a rescue when Carol got him 3 years ago and I will never let him be homeless again. Sorry this got long winded.
