<DIV>I have had the same experience as Bev re: conversations with dogs. Crackers
clearly says Momma if I walk away from him while we are at an event. Marion
Billy can attest to that. He has also reminded me of the need for a piece of
duck jerky as I leave the house. Other dogs have alerted me to their needs
through conversations including one of my heart bassets, Rascal ATB who told me
it was time for him to leave me. Are we crazy? No, I think that animals can
channel their thoughts to make us "hear" what they want.</DIV>

<DIV>I sit here with my Elder Clara notepads, oven mitt and cookbook and thank
the Lord that he sent Debbie to us. I have been thru the hospice experience
twice with family members and it is the most comforting and dignified care I
have ever seen. I keep her in my prayers and hope everyone finds the peace they
need. </DIV>
