      Thank you very much Tony.
      Thankfully, I have an amazing husband who is the best support system I could ask for. Echo was our adventure pup. She loved being out in the woods and exploring new places. Sunday was always Echo day and we’d find different trails and parks to take her to. She was super sweet and loved every person and animal she came across. We found out in November that she had lymphoma. We tried chemo and her remission lasted 6 weeks. When we noticed her breathing change we decided to not let it progress any further. The thought of her suffering terrified me. Heaven at Home came out and she was able to cross over peacefully on her bed. The kitty was actually Echo’s best buddy, Bandit. He was a wild kitten that broke into our house. He instantly made friends with Echo and eventually warmed up to us. He’s been really sad since she’s been gone. He was right there with us when the vet was here. With the final shot his tail poofed up and he rubbed up against her a few times then left. I think he understands what happened in a way. He’s been snuggling with us some at night but spends most of his time sleeping on her bed like he always did. I would love to join a meeting but it won’t be this one. The 20th is my mom’s birthday and we’re going to spend the evening with my dad so he’s not alone. Thank you again for your kind words. ❤️

        My beautiful Echo…she will forever be the light of my life. She crossed over on January 29th and my mom joined her on February 6th. I feel completely lost right now. Losing them both at the same time has left an emptiness that feels overwhelming. I\’d give the world to be able to hug them both and feel whole again.
        • Shadoerae, you have had so much loss of those most dear to you, and in such a short time, it is understandably overwhelming💔I am so very sorry foryour pain, and extreme losses. Do you have family or friends to be with you? Who is the kitty in the picture with Echo? Our pets mourn the loss of their buddy, too, and I hope that yo are comforting each other. Please tell us more about Echo if you would like, and feel welcome to join our online group meeting Thursday February 20th at 7PM Eastern (4PM Pacific) to share more with us. You will find kind, understanding and supportive friends here, and in the meeting. I am sending you {{BIG HUGS}} and my deepest sympathy. Toni
