Hi Everyone! Mum informed me that Gizmo is going to see the doctor on Friday. He is not eating or drinking and he sleeps all day. His mouth hurts really bad. Mum sat on the floor last night and hand fed my lil pal for over an hour and then she helped him drink a little. I just watched and stayed in the background, cuz mum seemed kinda sad. After she was done, I made her laugh by throwing my red elephant toy all over the place and acting silly rolling on the floor and growling....She just smiled and smiled. She said the doctor said he has Squamous Cell Carcinoma in his mouth and it has spread. Mum told me about a saying or prayer she has at her work, that she reads everyday and she changed some of the wording, but thought it would be a good post today for alot of us. Here it is:
Saint Theresa's Prayer:
May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content knowing you are a child of God.
Let this presense settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing (bark), dance (frolic), praise, and love.
It is there for each and every one of us.
Easter weekend is coming up......Happy Easter to all!!!!

Hi Deetz! Yay for birthdays! If I lived by you I would totally come, maybe I will send you an awesome Airedale present though! I'm so sorry to hear about Gizmo, that's so nice of you to care for him though. I'm sure he loves you even more for watching out for him! Give him a lick on the nose for me...and maybe a sniff in the ear!
Slurp!

Hi, Deetz -
We are so sorry to hear about Gizmo's condition. You are a good brother to care for and about him. We send lots of barks for you, your Mom and Gizmo. Mama sends thoughts and prayers for all of you.

Hi Deetz
We will pray real hard that Gizmo will be okay. We feel so very sad for you and your pawrents, and you are a very good boy to try to cheer your mum.
My horse sister Bonnie died from a squamous cell carcinoma before I came to live with my mum. Bonnie died exactly 3 years on the day she came to mum. It is real hard when you rescue animals coz sometimes their time with you is so very brief but at least they know love before they die.
Gizmo has had a very long and happy life and we will pray so very hard that somehow he will still be with you for your Barkday. We know this is a very sad and hard time for you and your family, and we care about all of you and we wish we could help you in some way.
Love from Hammer
So sorry to hear that Gizmo is not feeling well again :) We'll be praying for a miracle. BTW - That's a beautiful prayer that you've posted.
Lots of love from Josh and Jess

Deetz! It's me again! My human is pretty cool, except when I get in trouble. I think that's how all human's are thought, huh? Anway, sorry to hear about the shoe problem! Just tell your human that you were trying to clean them off, but then Gizmo ate them...right! He totally did it! And you tried to stop him, but you couldn't because he has seniority! Awww poor Deetz you got in trouble for trying to do the right thing. Just tell her that! Paws and waterbowls up my friend!
Slurp!

I hope Gizmo will be ok. Have a fun easter Deetz

Hey little dude! Sounds like your pal is getting ready to take his forever nap.
My Grandpa Angus just kind of wore out and Momma helped him take his forever nap cause he couldn't be here and be happy anymore. Be extra good to Momma right now cause she has to make some tough decisions.
Slobbers.

Deetz man!
Sorry Gizmo is feeling worse. My girl understands a little of how your mama may feel. My angel sissy, Rosie the Airegirl, had a rough time just before she went to the Bridge.
Be sure to give your mama extra snuggles and some juicy goober smooches from me... they might ease the pain a little.
Goober love & smooches for Gizmo,
Stanley
Hi Deetz,
We are once again so sad to hear that Gizmo is not doing too good, but that beautiful prayer will definitely give him some strength, as well as all the prayers being said to him from all your different pals, including us!
Lots of licks,
Maya and Kena
