<DIV>So much sadness lately on the drool. I am so sorry about Pat Alton
and her terrible illness. Prayers have been going daily her way and to her
dear friend Sandi, who has been at her side and caring for her hounds. I
pray tat Pat recovers, and for Sandi, that her strength keeps up. I
send condolences to Pat Dill's family and her friends on Pat's leaving for
the Bridge. I as sure that she will be greeted royally up there. She
was a fighter, but the cancer won. Hope her hounds will be cared for
too,</DIV>

<DIV>Drool is being sent to Carol and her Rosie, who is suffering from a bad
bladder infection as well as a yeast infection. Hope that the drugs help
to make her feel better, and give her slave a rest. We do go all out for
our hounds, don't we. Drool and prayers going out to Buddy and Roscoe's
slave who had a stroke. I am sure he is missed terribly by them.
Hope he recovers fully and quickly, so the hounds will not feel bad
anymore. Lastly, drool and prayers going out to Jody, whose foster Ethel
is having so many problems. Hope the surgery is successful and she
recovers fully, and will be back to her old self in no time. Now
that Ben is on a raw diet and the worms are gone, he is eating much better, and
will be drooling extra for all those in need. Boy it is great to not have
to feed him by hand, and get on me hands and knees and beg him to
eat.</DIV>
