'Rex & Tricia'
Rex Sent Me An Angel

Where to begin? Is there an end to this?
It has been almost two months and I still hurt a lot, and I know it will take time.
I decided to get another dog... not to replace Rex I know that happens a lot. The other day I went and got "Macy", she was given to me. 6 months old terrier mix... she has lightened my world again. When I went to pick her up on the way home I cried all the way home thinking about Rex and somehow felt like I was betraying him.
She was scared and I loved on her through my tears and grief and I was feeling better. When we got home after giving her a bath she went and laid right down in his bed... and went to sleep... she was home and comfortable.
She has been a joy to play with and I am thankful we are bonding, like Rex picked her out for me! The fit is so perfect. She showers me with kisses constantly.
Thank you Rex... I needed her.
I love you my heart!
