ANNIE LOVED TO LAY AND WATCH
THE BIRDS AND THE SQUIRRELS AND BARK!!! SHE WAS A
WONDERFUL
MOTHER. ALWAYS UP FOR A GOOD
RUN. SO EASY TO PLEASE. NEVER ASKED FOR ANYTHING
OTHER THEN FOR THE SUN TO COME UP IN THE MORNING
AND THE STARS AT NIGHT. AT
AGE 11 ANNIE HAD A CANCER GROWTH REMOVED. I
PRAYED THAT IT HAD NOT SPREAD, BUT IN FEB. 2005 SHE
GOT A COLD. A X-RAY GAVE ME DEVASTATING NEWS. SHE
WAS TERMINAL AND HAD LUNG CANCER. THE
VET PREPARED ME FOR WORSE CASE: SHE WOULD HAVE
GOOD DAYS AND BAD DAYS. WHEN THE BAD OUT WEIGHED
EVERYTHING THEN THEY WOULD BE THERE. THEY SENT US
HOME WITH MEDS THAT GAVE HER WONDERFUL
QUALITY OF LIFE. I GOT TO SPEND THE MOST
WONDERFUL DAYS WITH HER ALL THE WAY TO THE END OF
MAY OF 2005. WE WENT FOR WALKS, VISITED WITH THE
MAIL MAN, VISITED WITH ALL THE DAY CARE KIDS
AND THE PARENTS, VISITED ALL THE DOGS. WE
SPENT EVERY EVENING ON THE COUCH WATCHING TV
TOGETHER. IT WAS HARD TO WATCH HER SLIP AWAY
BUT SHE WAS AT PEACE WITH IT AND SHE GAVE ME THE
COURAGE TO BE THE BEST MOM I COULD BE....ON
A MONDAY MORNING SHE BARKED ONE TIME TO GET MY
ATTENTION I SAT DOWN NEXT TO HER SHE PICKED HER
HEAD UP AND LAID IT IN MY LAP AS I
KISSED HER AND TALKED TO HER. SHE JUST LAID
HER HEAD IN MY LAP AND WENT TO SLEEP. I WOULD NOT
CHANGE A THING I WAS THERE UNTIL THE END. SHE WAS
ALMOST 13 AND LIVED A GOOD LIFE. SHE NEW
WHAT A GIFT LIFE WAS. I LOVE YOU ANNIE UNTIL WE
MEET AGAIN AT THE RAINBOW BRIDGE. THE
PICTURES I AM PUTTING HERE
ARE OF WHEN SHE WAS SICK AND ARE OF THE LAST 2
MONTHS OF HER LIFE. SO SHE IS NOT GROOMED
OR REAL CLEAN FROM THE (THROWING
UP) BUT SHE WAS SO AT PEACE AND HAPPY.
