Kolby,

Yes.  Those of us who have not yet traveled that final path with our guides
can only share a part of the grief those ahead of us are experiencing now.
And remember to love and cherish our companions and partners anew.

It seems there have been a number of lossess, of great and wonderful dogs as
well as great and wonderful people.  Mitzi gets lots and lots of extra
kisses!  /smile/  I always wonder what she thinks when I leap away from the
computer and grab her and hold onto her for dear life.  She always gives me
sweet kisses and listens to my review of the "live forever plan."

The corollary to which is that, since cloning may be stable and affordable
by the time she's ready to retire, she could end up spending her golden
years (far away, since she's only 4) raising herself and helping me train
her.   Some people read way too much sci-fi! /smile/

Hugs to everyone who has lost or will lose a partner and friend.  Yes, you
will grieve and go on.  And your dear one of the past will always remain a
part of you.

Tami Smith-Kinney

I am sorry to hear of Louiza's passing Marion. My heart goes out to you as
well. Every time I hear or read of a guide dog passing or retiring, I make
sure that I tell Sunny that I love her. For I know that one day those times
will come for her and I too.
