Re: Please add Isaiah to Candlelight Service
Del,I am so sorry. I suspect every "rescuer" wrestles with space issues. I am so sorry that Isaiah died the way he did. But look around and pet those that are with you and look at their faces. You and they are the lucky ones.Joan"Del H. Daniels" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Please add Isaiah, he passed away last Wednesday, 1/4.

Re: Please add Isaiah to Candlelight Service
Dear Del, Please don't feel so badly. It's not your fault that Isaiah died. I am sorry for your loss and that you had to find Isaiah the way you did. You did more for him than anyone else, for sure. Take comfort in knowing that he knew that and loved you because of it. :) Wendy --- Del H. Daniels [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Please add Isaiah, he passed away last Wednesday, 1/4.

Re: Please add Isaiah to Candlelight Service
Thank you, Wendy, Joan, and Susan. Too much heartbreak in a short time. It was hard to give up Shiloh when I discovered he was FeLV+, he had lived under the house and on the back deck for almost a year, 14-15 lbs sweet, healthy guy. My Sam, HCM, had another crisis that Wednesday and almost died at the vet. Then found Isaiah the next morning. :( Fortunately the rest of my furbabies are doing well.

Re: Please add Isaiah to Candlelight Service
Del, you have my deepest sympathies. You gave him a good life. There are so many things that we blame ourselves for, I know I do too. We do the best we can, and food a love go a long way. I know he's grateful for your loving care. Many blessings, Gloria At 10:33 AM 1/9/2006, you wrote: Please add Isaiah, he passed away last Wednesday, 1/4.

Re: Please add Isaiah to Candlelight Service
Don't be upset with yourself. Things happen as they should happen. Even though we can't understand them and they hurt like hell. Hehad food and shelter and a caring person. That is so much more than so many have. He is very, very grateful for your kindness. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.
