Okay, a very, very good friend of mine just had to help his dog transition....
We spoke this morning and talked about receiving "signs" from them..... I said I have yet to feel like Happy Hannah has sent me a sign...just too darn busy eating chocolate, popcorn, ice cream and steak.....
We talked about how great it would be to see them in the clouds. I me.tioned that I kinda' thought that's one way she would 'connect" with me. I said maybe she was just waiting for your dog to join her so they coulld connect to us together.
I'm at work tonight..terribly sloww..TV in the restaurant...walk by it, never look at it...hear "dog"...look up at TV screen.....Bryon Williams, NBC Nightly News....says something like,." ...and here is the picture that has gone viral of a dog running in the clouds.....
AND THERE IT WAS......a big FLUFFY dog running in the clouds!
I don't know how to do the link...I'm gon a try....but it was on NBC Bryon Williams Facebooger page....hope someone knows how to post it...it's just beautiful.
The dog looks very much like a combination of Happy Hannah and his dog......yeah.....I think we got a "sign"

THANK YOU HAPPY HANNAH......you sure did take your own sweet time, but I know you've been busy eating, getting all the Angels to give you tummy rubs and butt scratches and trying to watch over Merry Myrtle Mae
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
OHHHHH YAAAAAAAY! The link worked!!! Maybe my favorite little computer geek muse can embed the picture!!! Yet another sign!!

If that isn't a sign, Sally, I don't know what is. How cool and wonderful and amazing!
And your friend is so incredibly lucky to have you in his life to help him and be there for him. I'm sure Happy Hannah welcomed his dog across the RB with a huge tail wag and play bow, and offered steak and ice cream before the running and chasing began.
Btw Lexie says hi Aunt Sally... Please give MM a big hug and a smooch from us!
Deb and Angel Lexie* Diagnosed at age 13. Tried radiation first; wish we had amputated upon diagnosis (even with lung mets). Joined Club Tripawd April 2014 & Lexie loved life on 3 legs! Advice: Start physical therapy as soon as your vet clears it, especially hydrotherapy if available :-) See Lexie pics here.
Yup....it is definitely a sign from the lovely Miss Happy Hannah!
You're right....she has been too busy enjoying herself....welcoming new friends who have crossed the bridge....and we all know how much work supervising Merry Myrtle is 
Many hugs and much love,
Linda and Tucker
What a cool sign to send Happy Hannah! So cool! I figured that when it came it would be in a big way. Hannah is a pretty fluffy girl with an even bigger heart. Her Mama Sally, big, big heart! Always an encouragement. I always look forward to reading what Sally has written. Love from, Lori and Ty
TY GUY, Best Black Lab ever! Diagnosed and had amp in January, 2014. Kicked MRSA's butt. Earned his angel wings on April 16, 2014. Run Free my boy and don't forget a shoe. Ty is a proud member of the " April Angels". Ty sent us Daryl, a Tripawd rescue in Sept. of 2016. Daryl is 5 +or -. We are also Pawrents to Chandler, a Border Collie mix who is 15 and 1/2, Lucy, a Corgi who is 7, 2 minis, 2 horses, and a feisty cat named Zoe. Zoe had a non skeletal Osteosarcoma removed in July 2015. No Chemo, she was at least 16. She is going strong although she is now completely blind. She is now close to 20 and her hobbies are eating and sleeping in front of her personal heater.
Sally,
What a beautiful way for Hannah and her friend to say hello she's letting you know she's watching over you, sending you her love and kisses and a big wag to Myrtle.
Esther and her Angel Snoop
WOOOOAAAAAH! Sally that is just so cool, thank you. I totally believe that was a sign!!!

This brought tears to my eyes (happy ones). So happy that she finally sent you that sign you were looking for Sally. I knew she was sending them but you just hadn't gotten the message. That one you couldn't miss. Don't feel bad though I sometimes think Sassy has to send her signals a little harder to get through to me.
I am glad your friend has you to help him in the transition of his baby to the bridge. We know how difficult it can be in this time. You are a super great friend.
Oh, Happy Hannah definitely has her hands full watching over her new sister Merry Myrtle.
Hugs & lots of love

Sally,
Seeing this made me cry, but happy tears.........what a completely awesome sign for sure, from sweet Happy Hannah !! And yes, I think we all believe in signs from our fur babies.....for me, I ALWAYS have. I read one of the posts on the facebook page with this picture that also brought tears to my eyes......it said, All our fur babies got together over the Bridge to create this for us.......and I was thinking that Happy Hannah was the group leader guiding them all the way......
Much Love,
Bonnie & Angel Polly
Oy.... I don't think I clicked 'submit" earlier since I don't see my post here. But I said something akin to definitely a sign! Leave it to miss Hannah to go BIG in her message to you!!!
You are such a kind and loving soul, Sally... the world is a better place w/you in it! And with Hannah watching over you ...
much love!

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
Yaaaaaaay Happy Hannah
A sign?? She wasn't going to send you just any old sign-she sent one from NBC news!!!!!! National TV!!!!!!! Way to go Hannah
Love you,
Joan and Lily
Our beautiful Lily was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her front leg on 12/14/11 at age 8 and had amp on 12/16/11. She completed 5 rounds of carbo. She was so brave and kicked cancer's butt daily! She lived life fully for 4 years, 3 months, and 15 days after her amp. My angel is a warrior princess. I miss her so much.
