There's a hole in my heart that can only be filled by you

Sad news today. My parents' dog Mona died this morning. Despite making great progress with the treatment for lymphoma over the past couple of months, she suddenly got much worse over the last few days, so they had to euthanize her this morning.

What a hard decision to make. I do not envy them. But she lived a good life with them as their first (and very cherished) dog. She was a sweet, mellow girl. Though I haven't spent much time with her, I'll miss her, too.

Send happy thoughts their way, please. And if you're so inclined, send a small donation to your local Humane Society - that's where Mona was adopted from. Sad.
