We read the devastating news today that Ted E. Bear has earned his wings.
Ted has been such an inspiration here. He bounced back from amputation surgery in January, and recently went to a Relay for Life Event where he inspired countless other people. He was only 5 years old.Ted's departure happened so fast, I can't even imagine how Cheryl is feeling. Please send her your condolences if you have a second today.

I'm just so sad to hear this. The family has been through so much and now to lose Ted. E. Bear is so sad.
My deepest condolences.

My thoughts are with you today as I read the news of Ted E Bear. Nothing makes it easy, nothing truly prepares you. Allow yourself time to grieve. Be kind to yourself.
RIP sweet Ted E Bear. Run free at Rainbow Bridge.

I can never make anyone understand how much support Cheryl has given me through my incredibly rough spring and summer. She and I chat almost nightly. We have a little routine and chat either here or on Facebook. Cheryl makes sure I'm hangin' in there, and we talk about Ted and Izzy and Dakota and Evelyn. I feel I can offer nothing comparable to her now.
There is much unfairness in our world. Ted was sweet, special and an angel. Maybe he spent his whole life trying on wings. He practiced being an angel every day.
I hope Izzy finds her way without her brother to guide her. Littermates have a special bond, and Ted and Izzy were joined at the hip. And I hope some peace finds its way to Cheryl and Tom. They are special people who make the world a better place.

From abandoned puppy to Tripawd Warrior Dude, Dakota became one of the 2011 February Furballs due to STS. Our incredibly sweet friend lived with grace and dignity till he impulsively raced over the Bridge on 12-15-12.
Dakota's thoughtful and erudite blog is at http://shari.tr.....pawds.com/
I am so sorry to read about Ted E. Bear. I know how devastating it is, my thoughts are with you.
