<DIV>Beth,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm so sorry that Blueberry has lost her fight and gone to the bridge. I'm sure she is there now the happy and health girl once again. We are slinging heart healing drool you way and Blueberry and you will be in our prayers tonight.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>Blueberry died this afternoon.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I can't believe I'm writing those words. I can't believe that my Bluesel, my Bear, my Velcro dog, is gone and that I'll never ever hold her again and feel how she snuggled right into my body and put her chin on my shoulder and sighed and went right to sleep. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I can't write about her, I can't think about her, there's just this terrible cold emptiness in this dark place.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>She and I fought so hard against this disease. We tried so hard and did everything. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm sorry I'm not able to write each of you personally right now, I'll try as soon as I can -- you have been such true friends, such dear and loving arms holding us. Thank you from both of us to you wonderful people -- I can't find the words to tell you how much your love has meant. I couldn't have made it through the last two months of this devastating illness without your incredible support when we were wandering alone. I treasure each of your e-mails, your shipments of drool -- all the love with which you embraced my sick little baby and me. Your love and understanding made us feel that we weren't alone in this cruel battle. This is a true family.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm sorry to write with bad news, but I wanted you to know. Please keep her held tightly in your heart and prayers, and never forget this sweet, joyous love muffin.</DIV>
