TheFullHouse Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 (edited) Baxter was a beautiful boy who while in the adoption kennel was bitten by a brown recluse spider. He survived that spider bite and was adopted by his mom Leslie. Leslie loved and spoiled her beautiful baby, as it should be. Baxter them developed cancer in his leg. Leslie had the leg amputated and drs. told her he would probably be alright. Unfortunately Baxter died yesterday. His mommy is currently serving our country in Iraq. She could not be with her baby when he passed away. She is heartbroken to say the least. As a tribute to Baxter and his brave mom I am posting this here for her. Godspeed sweet Baxter. Leslie, you are a brave and wonderful woman and my heart goes out to you. Baxter will always live in your heart. Sending prayers to help you through this terribly trying time. I will print all responses and send them to Leslie.
