Thanks, Cal, and everyone.

My daughter, Erin, is doing well. She has just completed 4 days of chemotherapy and has been feeling tired, but good.

I do enjoy handicapping and it is a welcomed respite. Just need to keep the schedule straight! I was so upset with myself when I realized I was an hour late. I watched the races anyway and enjoyed that.

Thanks for keeping me in the loop!

When I lost my Precious Pomeranian, Qrfluffl last June...
It happened so suddenly
All within 2 weeks and she was gone 💔

Emergency gallbladder surgery and a $10,000 hospital vet bill

And four days after returning from the hospital ...
She went to sleep 💤 ... and never woke up again

She left me with a broken heart 💔
And $10,000 in debt

My only consolation was holding my Cat 🐈
Hugging My Horse 🐎
*** And Thoroughbred Racing Contests 🐎
Diversion Helps To focus on something other than our pain

They say ...
Time Heals A Broken Heart 💔

I know that not to be true
I’m still crying 😢 after 15 years
Losing my beloved Arabian Horse, Destiny to Colic

I have lost A Dad + Husband to car crashes 😲 💔 😢
And my grief over my animals is no less than over them

My Heart truly knows the pain of loss and heartache 😔
So my empathy with Alli Is founded in experience

To quote Barbaro connections
Grief Is The Price We Pay For Love 💗

When I Lost Destiny ~ somebody told me this

Do not cry because she is gone
Smile 😊 for the time you shared

Great news about your daughter Alli. Give her an extra chocolate Easter Bunny for me.
