Our Patsy
Today was a rough day for us as we had to send our Patsy across the Rainbow Bridge. We aren't sure what took her life, but we think it could have been a brain tumor. She started changing her personality about two weeks ago, and several trips to the vet never uncovered what was wrong. Today, Cheryl and I watched her struggle, and decided it was time to let her go.

RE: Our Patsy
I'm sorry, Rob. That's always a heart wrenching time to go through.
