Oh we are so sorry. We hoped the news would be better. We're purring for you and Kimiko.
ReplyDeleteOh Shirley I am so sorry about Kimiko. We are sending up purrs and prayers for all of you. I sure don't blame you for feeling numb. You know how I have been feeling about cancer lately. Now it's hitting the sweet kitties. I haven't said anything about this yet but last week I got a phone call from a friend of mine that I have been writing to for many years. Her husband has bone cancer and is not expected to live long. Oh Shirley we still have to have faith. Bless you my friend.
