| Laura....I TRULY appreciated your story. Isn't it amazing how God can heal our hearts and give us the capacity to forgive when we think we can't? Thanks for the story. |

| Yes it is Ringo. When I turned around to him, I was filled with so much anger that I swear to you I wanted to beat him with my fists and scream at him till he was deaf. But in that split second, my heart changed, and I know it wasn't me, I didn't have that much compassion in me, so it had to be my higher power, which in my case is God. I wanted to share that story about my past even though to this day it's hard to re tell because you never forget that tragedy, the sight, smells, sounds, people, words that were said etc. It's probably one of the most vivid memories of my life,but I thought that Millicorrales needed to hear the same words I said even though my situation involved my child, and her's her furkid. I guess I just wanted her to forgive, no matter what the outcome before it was too late to fix it, like it could have been for me. I don't know. Maybe in her grief she couldn't see the similiar situation. I hope her the best today.

| Sending hope and prayer your way. I am sure your daughter feels terrible, and yes she should have told you as soon as she suspected the ingestion of the ibuprophen, minutes are precious with toxicity but perhaps she was terrified to tell you knowing how much you love your furbaby. Hopefully the plastic is the culprit of most of the problem. My husband takes advil every day for a back problem and we used to keep it on the coffee table until I learned about its great toxicity to dogs. The coating on the pills are very enticing to dogs. We keep it locked away in the medicine cabinet. Many folks have NO idea about how bad it is for our babies. Please be hopeful, some babies to pull thru with this if the antidote and charcoal are given in time. Please keep us updated and gracie sends puppy kisses to you................ |

| Prayers for you and Benni I am so sorry for what you are going through. I am definately sending prayers and well wishes to you, Benni, and your daughter. We don't always understand, but please remember God has a reason for everything that happens, even the bad things. I pray for Benni will recover from this tragic accident.

| The vet called this morning, and Benni has stabilized. He is on a host of meds, and they ruled out him ingesting any of the container. However he is still vomiting, no more blood at least. They are going to offer food late this afternoon, and if he keeps it down, they will let him go twenty fours after. We still have to be concerned about possible kidney and liver damage, but the vet says we may have got him there early enough to minimize it. Thanks for all your prayers and good thoughts, keep them coming as he is not out of the woods yet. |

| Amazing story Lauri! What a horrible thing to happen, and what a miracle your boy lived and another miracle he is fine. God looked down upon you that day. You handles it way better than I probably would have. Wonderful! As to Benni, I am horrified! I can't imigine the stress you are under right now. Prayers are with both of you and be sure and let us know how it goes! Pat |

| I'm so glad to hear he is doing better. I'll say a little prayer for him. Have you talked with your daughter yet....I'm sure she is feeling so much guilt. (Laura, thank you for sharing your story. It gave me tears. God is so good and really does give us what we need in every situation.) Bitsy |

| My thoughts and prayers are with you....I truly hope all goes well. Just a little tidbit, yesterday when I got home, my husband nearly killed me. It turns out my little girl found a q-tip I threw in the wastebasket in the morning. I guess I must have missed the wastebasket and it was on the floor. My husband gets home earlier than me and was playing with our little girl, next thing you know, she was gasping. It turns out the q-tip got stuck or when down her little throat. My husband was in near tears because he thought it was the end for her, but he quickly reached in her little mouth and pulled it out. His next step was the vet, but she was really happy the whole night and this morning. So hopefully she's not traumatized as much as we were. My poor baby!!! Once again we will be saying a little prayer for benni to get better. |
