Since Bill had no siblings, he would call Boogie his SISTER. I thought that was precious. Boogie was with us for fifteen years and one horrible day, learned she had stomach cancer. We made her life easy, but she was floor-bound. One day Bill had the flu. He asked me to come in and I leaned over his bed. He said, "If I feel one fourth as bad as Boogie, I'd be suprised. I kinda feel like I know how she is suffering. I can't let her go on like this." His eyes welled up and he asked to see her. We brought her into his bedroom and the three of us took turns hugging her. We cried for a long time, then Dad & I took Boogie to the all-night vet hospital. <br><br>I can't bear to think that sweet little dog that used to stand outside with the wind blowing thru her long ears and scheming on how to catch a bird is really dead.
