Goodbye, Sweet Ditto

Ed's best friend, confidant, and loyal companion died yesterday.  Ditto was the sweetest dog you have ever seen.  When I had my hysterectomy, she knew that I was sick and would not leave my side.  All she wanted from you was a rub on the head.  In the past year, she had really gone down hill with major hip problems.  She could not get up or down by herself sometimes.  When we were visiting last Friday, she had to have help getting a drink of water.  Mom said that you could hear her labored breathing at night.  I am sure that the other two dogs drove her crazy, but she just ignored them. 

God blesses us with our pets and I am thankful that Ditto was given to Ed.  We will miss you!
