Merry Christmas and a Healthy New Year

[attachmentid=5]

Hoping everyone has a very Merry Christmas and a New Year filled with health and happiness. My little grandson wrote a letter to Santa and it brought tears to my eyes...he asked Santa to make Grandma better for Christmas. I am hopeful he will get this gift. I am fast approaching my 3 year date!
Hugs and Blessings to All

Hi Everyone

I am new here and thought I would introduce myself, the Christmas post seemed like a good one to start with, and when I opened it and saw the black labs well that just clinched it, I lost mine (Jack) last year he was 14 and I miss him so much,I have thought about getting another but I am main caregiver to my husband and he is very ill and I just wouldn't be able to make time for a pet. Below is a few details about my BC. Merry Christmas and a Happy Hogmanay to you all.

Welcome to Scottthescott, and if I may ask, what does "Lang may Ye're Lum Reek" mean? Long may you're .......? :)

Love, Lolly

I know how you feel...if you notice, the picture on my Christmas greeting contains 2 black labs...my other picture shows a graying chocolate lab...I had to have her put down last May after she was diagnosed with cancer in the lymph nodes...I had her for 11 years and it was heartbraking...all the while I am fighting the same thing, only mine is mets to the lymph nodes....I was devastated, so in a crazed moment went out and bought not 1 but 2 black labs, sisters which I named Sophie and Sadie...they are a pain in the butt alot but I love them beyond belief...they take my mind off of my illness and my loss of my chocolate.....I was exhausted after trying to get a picture of them wearing antlers!!!! The things we do to our dogs. My prayers go out for you and your husband....hoping the new year brings both of you improved health and many blessings!
Hugs
Sheila
