Christine sent me a text yesterday, I was on the road all day getting my grandson...
First of all let me say how terribly sorry I am for your loss... I'm absolutely in shock. I just can't wrap my head around it, as I'm sure you and your family feel the same.
Several years ago, we had a bully baby named Winston... he was the absolute LOVE of our family. When I came on the scene at EBN he was ALL I had left of our bulldogs, and he was very much loved and spoiled on here and at home. Right after his first birthday he had a routine entropion surgery at a specialty clinic in Nashville, and I was a nervous wreck for days beforehand. Surgery went fine, and I was preparing to take him home when the unthinkable happened... he aspirated as we were leaving the clinic and we rushed him to an emergency facility. He died within 5 minutes... my car was still running w/the doors opened at the ER clinic. It still stands today as one of the worst moments of my life, I felt completely alone and utterly devastated...
My family here at EBN, and you guys KNOW who you are

rescued me... they pulled me thru the worst days, and they also grieved w/me and my family. That in itself creates a bond that can never be broken, and I will forever be grateful for that unending support that continues to this day.
We can't change what has happened, even though God knows how I wish that I could for you... but we are here for you when you need us. Sending many hugs and prayers to you and your family. RIP Sweet Daphne, we will miss you so...
