While in Durham with Littermates

[Guest guest]

I would really recommend that you keep in touch with

your littermates while in Durham. Vicki and I stayed

at the same hotel and went everywhere together. We

met up with Amy and her mom and went out to eat and to

the movies. We went shopping. It really helped to

have someone else to talk to about all the new

feelings and what to eat and any worries. We shared

soup and crackers and juice! It was great! I really

feel like a made a new forever friend. Miss you,

Vicki!!

One night Vicki drank something too fast and had some

pain (probably gas) and it was so nice to be there for

her. She came to our room and I made her lay down and

we talked for about an hour until we were sure it

wasn't anything serious. Right after surgery any

little pain is scarey.

Get phone numbers while you are at the hospital and

call each other - make the effort - you won't be

sorry. If you are VERY lucky you may even get a

visit from the Angel of Durham - Gwen!!! You won't

meet a more beautiful woman - inside and out!
