Feb 2014

I am so, so sorry for your very recent losses. I have an 18 month old Labrador retriever, and I can't imagine our life without him.

I'm never unamazed by the love between spouses, even through suffering. You and she are lucky to have one another.

I'm so glad you're on the mend and will be discharged soon.

I don't know how I missed your thread yesterday, but I hate that I did. And I completely agree with how it rains and pours. It felt like the first four weeks of 2014 were like that for me. One thing after another. And expensive, too.

Good luck!
