Sad News.....


A man called our house the other day to let us know that he found Daisy, but it wasn't good news. Unfortunately I wasn't home and for some reason he felt it was ok to share the difficult and graphic news with Hannah. Needless to say she called my cell phone screaming and crying. After I got home I calmed Hannah down I called the man back.....to tell him" thank you" for taking the time to call but what the hell was he thinking telling my 10 year old such horrible news! It was horrible. Some might think that now at least we know, but to be honest I was happier thinking that someone just wanted her so badly that they kept her for themselves. I am thankful that Hannah has Jazzie to soothe her heart, it has been difficult for all of us, but especially Hannah.

Oh no... I'm so sorry to hear that. I was hoping she'd found a new home somewhere. I hope that the new puppy brings Hannah some confort in the loss of her dog.

Oh my gosh Maryellen. I am so very sorry that Hannah had to be the one to hear the news. I know first hand what that is like. when I moved to Maryland, some idiot kid thought it would be funny to let my little schnauzer out. She was hit by a car and the person who found her called to tell me the "graphic" details and then informed me that I couldn't come get her because she had just , and I quote, "thrown her out with the trash". I was mortified! I'm so, so , so sorry for your families lost!! I'm glad Hannah has Jazzie but I'm sure it's just not he same. I'll be praying for her heart to heal quickly.
