<DIV>Sandi, I am so sorry to read about all the problems you are having. I
will pray that your appeal is soon and is in your favor as well as your
co-worker's. I hope that you find a place soon so that you and the hounds
can be quickly reunited. That has to be terrible to be without them.
Prayers will also be sent that you get your job back and things return to
normal. Copious amounts of drool will be bent your way.</DIV>
