When we lost Frannie; both my husband and I were devastated.

As childless (by choice) homebodies; our lives revolved around her.

In our grieving process we commented to each other, "Hey, we'll have allot more money without buying all Fran's meds and the countless trips to the vet"! Then we said, "Maybe we'll go to a show, or travel somewhere...maybe, we'll go...somewhere". - because we never went anywhere Frannie couldn't come; so consequently we never went anywhere.

We were without Fran for 6 months...and we never went anywhere and we never spent any "extra money". It was quiet and lonely and boring and miserable.

Of course we had to work through the grief of losing Fran and then the guilt of moving on...

but when we got Veronica...it was like there was color in our world again...and there was life.
