Hi Josh,

Truly, you are very gifted in the written word. Sorry you found us here but glad you did as this is a wonderful site for information and support.

I was touched by your photos. Animals have a 6th sense when it comes to our physical well being. I have a Pixie Bob. They are known to be dogs in cat's clothes. We had a house/cat sitter stay at our place while I was undergoing treatment in Baltimore. We came home over the weekends but "Socrates" knew something was up.

Since I came home, he has spent most of his time with me. I'm never far from his line of site. He knew something wasn't right with Daddy even before I was Dx'd. Truly, he has been a huge assett in the healing process. He gets me up out of my recliner to play "mousie" with him (a modified game of fetch where I do most of the fetching ~lol~). Follows me wherever I go in the house to keep an eye on me.

It's amazing how therapeutic our animal friends are.

Best wishes to you. Positive thoughts and prayers.

"T"
