This website is dedicated
to the memory of this dog.....
Rooney....
the dog of my heart.
He waits for me now at the Bridge.

Welcome to my home. Please find a pillow on the floor and get comfortable. Take off your shoes. There are beverages in the fridge, and you may help yourself. There are few rules here. Latch the gate, latch the gate, latch the gate, latch the gate. Ok, that’s only one rule, but it is the most important one. You are in a home with animals, and their safety and security is paramount. Other rules can be broken… that one cannot.

Be truthful. That’s not a rule, but a request. We tend to trust here, easily…. and too often wrongly. Such hearts are fragile, and we ask that you not cause harm here. Be gentle in your voice, tender in your hand. We cannot demand that you be kind, but it is what we want here, so please…. Be kind.

I’m the human here. Thank you for visiting. I’m so pleased that you’ve come to see us. My name is Mommy, and if you take my hand for a while, we can walk through some of these lives. You can let go of my hand any time you choose.

You will read stories that you don’t want to know, and maybe you’ll cry a bit. Hankies are there on the desk for you. See? Up there, over the printer. There ya go. Might want to get one now, ‘cuz we’re diving in.

Every life has purpose. For every heartbeat, there is a heart that beats in time. Shares a rhythm, knows it and holds it dear. It is precious, and too often overlooked. Cast away perhaps, and lost forever.

Welcome to the rhythm of my soul…….
