macoduck Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Two years ago Egypt was a sweet little brindle girl, adopted by folks in my area when she was 9. One year later the owners surrendered her to me for transport back to her original adoption kennel. She was skeletal and had maggots on her wounds. Her life took a much better turn when she was rehabilitated by Project Racing Home and she quickly adopted into a real loving family. Egypt was wonderfully spoiled by her new family and many folks on Greytalk sent her gifts and prayers during her recovery. After a little over year with her new family, Egypt got osteo and was helped to the Bridge. (Lauren, could you post a picture of Egypt if you still have one? I only have the bad photo.)

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
