A Bow Wow Thank You From Laney

I have often wondered if Laney could talk what she would say about this journey to help my husband.  But since she has no voice I'll have to speak for her.  Here is what she would like to say...  Thank you to all our friends and family for all the prayers, giving us daily walks to the mailbox to retrieve greeting cards, the phone calls, e-mails, funny jokes, care packages, and love that was sent in many ways.  We are forever grateful and blessed to have such a wonderful friends.  You have proven that the power of prayer has given us strength to to face difficult moments in our life.

Also Laney and we would like to thank our care team at Md Anderson for without them this journey could not have happened.  Thank you to our doctor for caring about us and your commitment to research and a cure for Lymphoma. Thank you to all the nurses who have helped us and cheered my husband on. And, also a heartfelt thanks to everyone at Md Anderson that took moment to listen to us, give us a hug or give us encouragement.   We can truly say that what you give away in life will come back to you.  We are living that blessing right now.   We hope to continue to give in any way we can and Laney will be right by our side as we continue to live each day to its fullest.  So to everyone bow wow from Laney.   She is happy that you cared so much about her master.

A Dog's Life

According to my husband Laney has it made, or did he mean she has a maid.  It must be the same maid my husband has.  I believe that maid is the one I see in the mirror each morning(LOL).  Any ways Laney has had a busy week taking care of both of us. She has been faithfully taking care of my husband after every chemo treatment.  She lays by him in the bed, she sits on him on the couch, she follows him where ever he goes.  But,  this past week she had to step up to the plate and take care of both of us.   I was a little under the weather.   She had two people to sit on and two people to follow, it must have been exhausting.  But, according to my husband she has it made.  Here is my list of why she has it made.

10. Doesn't have to take a daily bath

9. Doesn't have to shave or comb her hair daily

8. Doesn't have to shop for food

7. Doesn't have to fix her food

6. Gets the top of line all natural food (where's our prime rib?)

5. Gets a daily back and belly rub

4. Gets to go to the groomer for full pampering and she leaves us with the bill

3. Doesn't have to wake up to an alarm clock

2. Doesn't have to clean up any messes

1. Gets to nap all day on the bed while my husband works!

Yes, Laney you do have it made, and WE LOVE YOU!!!
