Thank you Sally and Jerry. 

You are so kind and always say the right things to make me feel better.  The pictures turned out cute.  Gracie is my girl and she really did not want to participate every time I walked behind the camera.  But we got some funny shots and some cute ones (the best part is it's free because she is using them to promote her business!) 

The last photo on the page was Bailey's first Christmas in 12/06, we brought her home on the 20th of December, I remember it well sitting at dinner and Mackenzie was on Bella's breeders web site and someone returned her.  She said can we go get this merle dane someone returned her and I feel sorry for her it's Christmas... stopped dinner, put Bella and Domino in the bedroom with the baby gate up.  Left and headed to Carrolton, IL to go get that beautiful babe and give her a forever home and no more taking her back.  She was such a loving girl and still is, I know she has met all her tripawd family and has made many friends she loved other dogs.

So here we are again, I really appreciate everything you do. You raise me up when I am down.  I love looking at all the costumes and new topics I have missed.  I still have a hard time with the new tripawds.  I'm praying for them but it's still hard to read about the babies going through all of this.  I know not everyone goes through what we went through it seemed like every time we took one step forward it was two back with the meds and chemo but she was a fighter until the very end.  I just can't believe we only could help her for 7 months and the quality of life wasn't always there.  Just hurts the heart that I promised her more.

You guys are the best.

Say prayers that I go Wednesday, I know I need to but I just think I'm going to lose it.  I have a wicked stepmother and I was not allowed to see my Dad in the nursing home and she had a "no code" on him make him comfortable.  He was having a hard time breathing and chest pains, they gave him two aspirins and put him to bed.  No one was with him.  But I dealt with this all my life with her and I was kept away because I think she knew I figured her out.  Bought a card the day after he dies on Friday $40,000 and then Sat. takes it in for her phone synced with the car and gets her hair done already and it was pouring down raining.  I know I should stop right there.  My Dad belonged at home with a home nurse if she can afford to give a nice car to her daughter and buy a new car.  Anyway... I vented and you can delete this paragraph.  I just keep crying to Neil I just can't do it.

So lots of prayers, I visited Bailey today and said prayers for her and all her friends and place a Christmas swag on it and I'm going to wire names and attach to it of all her tripawd friends that helped us.  Seriously I'm not sure I could have done it without you.

Next thing is dog food for the pups...  Breeder fed Diamond High Energy Food and not puppy.  I have them on it still because I want to get a good nutrition routine for these pups.  Also thoughts of spay and neutering?  Doc says before first heat cycle helps them from getting breast cancer and then on Diesel he hasn't said he's so little.

I love you guys,

Thanks for listening and if I need to read about food topics that are already on here just say hey stupid look here... my confusion is the high protein not over 24% but then all puppy food contains at least 26%... I want to do the right thing.

HUGS and much love,

Tracy and Angel Bailey Girl, Bella, Gracie and Diesel (my daughter's dog she named him!)

Gracie is 100% Euro she is going to be one big girl.  Her feet look like lion paws.

Hey Sally, I loved the idea of making a donation in Baileys name for Christmas, Tripawds in a couple of days when my heads on straight, I will make a donation.  This site is like none other and I sincerely mean it when I say that you are the ones that helped me through.  HUGS and thank you for the condolences.

Love you!

HUGS and Miss you Sally, Jerry and all the furry family and Angels up above watching us silly humans wagging their tails!
