Hi Flori! Hi Beau!
Well, you've got two very great ingredients to keep life on the go...a good dog and Her2 sisters! Flori, you're just the best! I'm thinking with all the brain stress of figuring out the medical stuff, surely we could get enough brain power to figure out how to all board a time machine and have that real for real hug time with a bit of chocolate!
Sure am sorry that you had to deal with all the yucky stuff, but am so glad you came on to share and collect some extra love and fuzzies!
Bet that ol brain mri will show "nothing there"!
Tons of love and sunshine heading your way, ma
