Dog's Life . . . .
I look at my two dogs some days and wish I could trade places too! But it's us humans that make those dog's lives so good!!!!!
My surgery was really easy and I recovered easily and quickly. And it gave me hope for things to come. I just keep focusing on "the next step"!
Turn off your mind for a few days and just take it hour by hour as this step gets done and you check that one off!
Lots of good wishes and prayers are on the way,
ma
