I lost my big man about an hour ago. He was playing with the girls this morning, and a tumor we didn't know he had ruptured, and now he is gone. It was fast, fairly painless (for him), and he was playing when it happened. I feel grateful for these things, but it really hurts. He was such a good boy-- Sandee, please make sure he hooks up with Treasure and Rio. Bandit, I love you and you will be sorely missed by all of us. Gerri, Maru, Maggie, Colby, Mattea.
