Bye Bye Precious Prissy!

First, I do know there are more sad things that happen to people, I do not take that lightly. But, this is MY story...on my blog!
Last Thursday we were so very excited to have CB's parents driving here to see us. Prissy was scheduled to be spayed. I took her in at 8:15. She was as happy as could be as I handed her to the staff. They were to call me when she was awake. CB had just called me asking if I had heard from them (around 10:30) and they called just then, so I had him hold for a second. I was gone much longer as the doctor began by saying there was no easy way to tell me.........blah blah blah. She had a cardiac arrest as they were waking her up. All had been fine up to that point. They worked on her almost an hour trying to get her back, but they could not.
We only had her 2.5 months, but we were so attached to her. We miss her terribly. I was so glad CB's parents were here.
On Friday, I went to Petland and explained that my puppy had just died and they let me hold a yorkie puppy back in one of their offices. I held it and cried and cried and told Prissy goodbye. I needed to do that! They were very nice.
Now for a bright side. The breeder we got Prissy from found out and told my friend Tracy that there is a another litter due New Year's eve, and we can have one of Prissy's sisters. I am very hopeful, we both are.
I am so grateful for all the sweet Facebook notes, emails, texts, calls, plants, flowers, even a bear to hold. I am so lucky to have such great friends and family!

Oh Toy I am SO sorry! I have been really out of the loop with the babies and I didn't know. Praying for you and CB. I know how wonderful those little fuzzy kids can be!
