    Default Hi and Thank You

    Hi everyone. I don't post here hardly at all anymore, but I check in now and then. This group was a life saver when my boy was dxed with cushings (PDH) in 2008. For those that don't know Niko's story, he was then dxed with Lymphoma in October 2008. It was a member here (Stardeb) that urged me to treat him and I did. We got 8 months of remission, and he passed in July 2009 at age 16 and 7 months.

    I dedicate my online time now to a grief support group for those that have lost the battle with Canine Lymphoma. I learned HERE, on this Cushings board, how important good support is. I know there are so many of you that give your time and energy to helping those facing cushings. You are all little saints in my book. Thank you for all you do and all you did for me. I continue to refer people here any time they come to me with the Cushings dx.

    I brought a new dog into my life last month. Things are great and we are having fun learning new stuff. Like my Niko, she is a fast learner. Click here for a little video For those that I'm still in touch with regularly, thanks for all your kind, continued support. You have a special place in my heart.

    Dear Bettina,

    I am so, so happy for you and Hayley. She is just gorgeous and so attentive to her new mom. How could she not be? She found the most loving, caring mom in the world! Thank you so much for sharing her with us.

    Huge hugs,
    Leslie

    Thank you Cindy. Your kind words mean a lot.

    The song I think you are you referring to, on the home page, is Enya, "Only Time".
