goodbye hope

a month or so ago i posted about danielle & ryan's pups- love and hope.

they are two years old & are sisters who LOVE being together & have brought so much joy to ryan & danielle's life.

hope has been sick with bone cancer for about three months now.

she has been on meds, not feeling any pain, but not improving either.

danielle & ryan wanted to make sure she enjoyed the rest of her life here on earth rather than putting her through more surgery, chemo, etc.

today hope was sent to doggy heaven.

these past few months have been a hard time for the longs, as anyone can imagine.

however, they truly feel that hope was ready to go- they had peace & comfort in that.

i know they are so appreciative for the time they had with her.

please keep them in your prayers, and love too, that they continue to stay strong through these first days without hope.
