Betsi. I know how hard this is for you, as i told you before my brother has lived there for close to 10 yrs now, we do keep in contact by internet but it is not the same. He lives in Davao, can't remember where you said your kids would be.
If you want to talk I am here on a daily basis. Hopefully the time will pass quickly and they will be back home with you. Hugs and Prayers are being sent to you.

Betsi, my heart is with you. There is no way to say how it must feel. I am sending you hugs, and will be praying for you, Mike and the kids.

Holy cow how did I miss this??? Betsi I'm so sorry I wasn't on yesterday. I know you have to be hurting, but being able to stay in contact will help some. Wish I was there to give you a hug.

Thanks Janet. I could use a group hug just about now

This is part of the reason I'm getting a labradoodle from Tink. I needed a plan to keep busy since I won't have any kids around. I am going to train a therapy dog. Ever since my brother had a stroke 3 years ago and I watched the rehab center using therapy dogs, I knew that was what I would do someday. I will be a part of this group www.therapet.org It's about an hour from where I live, but that's fine. Tink is picking a puppy for me, and Mike and I are driving to Wisconsin to pick it up. We needed something to look forward to, and this is doing the trick.

I'm excited to get a dog. Even if for some reason it can't become a therapy dog, I'll have a great pet. Mike's great dane is getting old...

What a wonderful goal, Betsi! I knew you were going to train the pup as a therapy dog - but didn't know why.

You are so right, animals are wonderful morale boosters - it is just incredible to see what they can accomplish with people who are sick, lonely, tired or just needing a boost!

You are so wonderful to engage in such an important endeavor Betsi. Just like your kids who are also doing wonderful things to help others, so are you! How synchronous. It's like it was meant to be!
