***The VWL Groupies & Trivia Thread*** Chapter 2!

[50 years Too!]

Hey fellow groupies this is off topic but I could really use your good thoughts and prayers right now. I had told you all in a previous post about our dog Montana having cancer. Well it has gotten to the point where we need to end his suffering. His nasal tumor has gotten into his tear ducts and is really affecting his eye. It drains terribly and the vet thinks it is painful. So we need to do what we have been dreading. We know it has to be done but this is awful. He is 9 years old but were hoping to have him alot longer. We are going to take him to the vet to have it done on Saturday. Boy I sure do love having dogs but hate this part of it. He has been a good dog and we sure will miss him. Here are some pictures of him before the tumor started to show and he still looked beautiful. I sure am going to miss his soulful eyes.

I'm so sorry.

Good Morning Groupies!
I've been away from the boards the past week or so. My dad lost his battle with cancer and was laid to rest on Tuesday. To go back and read the posts has been very therapeutic for me.

Disney Loving Iowan - Our four footed friends leave lasting paw prints on our hearts. I feel your pain. Montana is a beautiful dog. Good thought and prayers coming your way today...and tomorrow too!

DiznyDi--I'm so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you and your family.
Glad you were able to come to the groupie thread for some comfort.
Welcome back.

Here are some pics that I thought you guys may enjoy. I took a ton, so I'm sure you'll get your fix!

BTW, to my surprise, VWL is one of my favorites! I usually don't care for the "hotel" style resorts, but WOW. What an absolutely AMAZING resort. I now understand why you guys love it as much as you do!

We just got back today, and we're already trying to figure out when we can go back again. Thought you guys would enjoy this story...

DH: Do you like Disney more than the beach.
Me: In some ways, yes. Why?
DH: Well, I think I've turned a corner. This is the first time that I can honestly say that I think I enjoy Disney more than I enjoy the beach.
Me: Absolutely. There's so many things we know we like to do, and yet so many new things that it doesn't get boring.

What I wanted to say..."See, I told ya so!"

You are the best! I'm going to go to your pictures anytime I need a fix.
You really should grab a moosie now!

Thanks,
Deb

DiznyDi, I too am so sorry for the loss of your dad. My prayers are with you and your family at this oh so difficult time. Such sad times for Groupies this week, but we are blessed that we have one another and a great thread to come to for a pick-me-up. Hugs to DiznyDi and DLI

Thank you all so much. The things you have said sure help. It is a difficult thing to go through and having understanding people you can talk to helps. I took off of work today to stay with him and I am even more sure that we are making the right decision. Laying around all day in pain is just not how a dog should live. Your hugs and prayers sure are appreciated. Thanks for all your support and the nice compliments on my beautiful boy.

Isn't it horrible. I'll give my dog, Hobbes a doggie bone in Montana's honour

DLI. My thoughts and prayers to you and your family for Montana. My Shih-Tzu is 13 now so I don't know how much longer he has, but I will cherish the time I do have.

Di. My condolences to you and your family on your loss. I'm glad the groupies have helped in the healing process.

DizneyDi..so sorry about the loss of your Dad. I am still grieving the loss of my Dad who died in December. My thoughts are with you.

 

[Disney loving Iowan]

Hey groupies. Well we had quite the difficult morning but the hardest part is over at least and now he is at the rainbow bridge. Montana had a really nice morning of being spoiled with attention and food. Fortuatly the procedure itself went well and he went peacefully. Wow is the house empty now. Keep expecting to see him. I really appreciate the support I have gotten from all of you. It helps sooooo much. Thank you all so very much. You are a great group of people.

 

[Muushka]

I am so glad her last day was one that she knew she was loved. And I love the thought of a Rainbow Bridge. I look forward to seeing all of my beloved pets there.

 

[blossomz]

My thoughts are with you...DLI
