Carlos,
I am sad to hear of your loss. I well know the pain of losing a guide
dog. I have lost two Seeing Eye dogs over the years. They become such
treasured friends and companions, and they become permanent parts of our
hearts. Although you know that Lionel is in a place of safety and joy, there
is so much sorrow in being apart. Look forward to the day when he will meet
you at rainbow bridge and you will be together forever. I will keep you in
my prayers.
Kathy

Greetings to all of you. It is with a heavy hart that I write to all of you.
Yesterday afternoon at 410 pm I lost my retired Seeing Eye dog Lionel to
cancer. He was 13 years old and on the one hand I am glad that he is not
suffering any more but on the other hand it is extremely painful. He died
in my arms. The toomer that Lionel had was blocking his air way and thus he
was having difficulty breathing. Your thoughts and prayers are appreciated
during this difficult time. I am so blessed to have my current guide Xena
with me as well as the support of so many of you who are guide dog users.
