Well my baby boy Jumbo succumbed to his cancer this morning. It is a sad day around here as I have lost a great friend. Thank you to everyone who said a kind word or a prayer for him.
Jumbo RIP
Just found out yesterday our "George" has hyperthyroidism and a mass growing
in his chest between his lungs.... brought him home to say goodbyes and will
take him in saturday to end his suffering.
Prayer up Jumbo!

Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

My heart goes out to both of you. I lost my best friend and companion 4 years ago and still get misty eyed about it.

Sorry for your loss pal, I am in the same boat hoping that rainbow bridge thing is true, it is quite a unique exquisite pain to lose a good dog friend, time is the only true medicine for it....however I am absolutely sure Jumbo would approve of you finding another dog to hang around as there are so many in desperate need of a savior.
Hang in there rambelon...just keep on rambeling on.
