Dang it hurts to lose a fur baby. Losing my baby girl has just cut me to the soul and shredded my heart to pieces. I need to know that my dear Lucy will live on in some small way, so this is what I've done.
First, I made a donation in her memory to Yorkie Haven Rescue. I ask Linda (Ladyjane) to put the money towards defraying the cost of helping a senior pup find their "furever home". That way, Lucy can pay it forward, and another sweet baby will have the chance to live out their sunset days, safe and loved.
I also made a donation to Yorkie Talk. You all know that they need to upgrade their server. Yorkie Talk, (and everyone here) helped me to learn how to be a good mommy to my sweet girl. I ask questions, got advice, and read until my eyes were crossed. I've made friends, shared laughter and pictures, and now, I've been loved and comforted by so many here. I want Yorkie Talk to continue as a place where others can be welcomed, educated, share their happiness, and their tears. I want a place to be here where we can love on each other, and our precious fur babies. I made the donation in Lucy's name, but it is a "thank you" to each and everyone of you here who has loved us on our journey. I want Lucy to live on each time a new friend joins Yorkie Talk, just like we did, 22 months ago. In some small way I just wanted to say "thank you all" for being there for me- and for my sweet Lucy.
