Prayers are needed for our Own LadyJane

[margaritaville]

RIP, George. Linda I'm so sorry for your loss.

Oh no! I'm so very sorry... RIP Sweet George. How sad. Praying for you and
Kiche.

[ladyjane]

Thank you everyone for your kind words...for your thoughts and prayers. I am having a particularly difficult time with this...it came as a shock even though I had known for some time that George's days were numbered. I actually had him longer than I had expected given his medical conditions. Thankfully, for him, the end did actually come quickly.

I am going to keep this brief for now as my heart is broken and it is very hard for me to do this at all; but I did not want to not thank you. I hope you all understand. George is the reason I got involved in rescue...he is the reason there is a Yorkie Haven Rescue. All of it began in 2005 when I adopted him at a time that I knew my Maxwell would be leaving me. I just knew I could never replace Max so I started looking for a rescue...and along came my sweet George.

Godspeed my sweet angel. I know you have Cody to snuggle with now .. and so many to play with forever. I will see you again one day.....

On another note, Kiche is home but is still on shaky ground so to speak. I will start another thread about him in the coming days.

Oh no...I am so very sorry about George . Please take care of yourself, Linda, and know we're all thinking of you.

Linda I am so sorry. I know you are having a tough time. You are such a strong woman. George was lucky to be rescued by you. And you were lucky to find him. He will forever live in spirit with you. His memory will forever be upheld with YHR. I pray that God will give you the strength you need to get through this difficult time. RIP George.

I think that we and many, many Yorkies are all indebted to George since he is the reason we have our LadyJane and YHR. Thanks from the bottom of my heart sweet boy.

This post made me cry once again as I saw Linda yesterday, the strong Linda I know, become just like everyone of us...heartbroken over the loss of one of her babies. Linda has ALWAYS been available to me - night or day, for any question or help I may have with any of my little ones. Even when I know she is exhausted from taking care of all of her fosters, she's never too busy to help or advocate for these little yorkies. I remember once leaving Texas A&M with her, when a woman came in with a little dog that she could not afford to pay the deposit on...we were leaving, got half way out of our parking place when Linda threw the car back into drive from reverse, marched herself back into the lobby and offered to pay the deposit for the total stranger's dog so it would not have to suffer any longer. That is what Linda is made of. I've seen her take these dogs that have been mangled, abused, neglected and just no longer wanted and fiercely protect them. She finds homes for them and sometimes (more often than not) has to foster them indefinitely. Her medical bills for these babies are astronomical because she takes the "broken" ones, the elderly and the ones nobody else wants....some of you all think she is tough, she has to be tough to do this every day. I saw Linda not so tough yesterday as she held George and made the hard decision to let him go. She held him so gently and stroked him, loved him and kissed him; he could no longer hear or see, but he knew...he knew he was in Linda's arms where he had always been safe. He knew that once again, she would make sure that he was safe - and she did. God bless you Linda, for all you do for these little ones.....

I'm so sorry for your loss.

[Sammy Mommy]

I'm so very sorry. Sending hugs and prayers to you and Kiche.

I just checked in to see how the two were doing and see that George has passed away. I'm so sorry, Linda. I know he was special to you and am so sorry he's gone. The consolation is he's now forever done with pain and suffering and illness. That's the one thing that consoles us sometimes when a very ill or old dog dies. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of him and filling his last days with love and care. I know you are hurting and will pray for you. Hoping Kiche begins to do better very soon.
