Dee, the zip code for Brookline Ma is 02445. Have you tried the Holiday Inn in Brookline yet about the dog? I'm sure they will allow you to bring him/her? The one down the street from me lets guests bring their dogs when staying there. Keep calm, take a few deep breaths, meditate, then focus on one step at a time. I know, easy for me to say but I know you are strong enough to get thru this. Keep us posted on both of your progresses, we care deeply for you guys!
