Re: Pets of the AC

This is my Riley, my family, best friend, all I've got. She is a trained ESA/service dog, though not formally trained for specific medical problems.
She's like my AmEx card, I never leave home without her! Didn't know it at the time, but later realized she was trying to tell me I had kidney cancer, then 4 months later a near-rupturing gall bladder. I've figured out how go listen to her. She fusses (barks and whines) at me before I fall into a depression, and really gives me h*** when I get angry and before I throw one of my temper tantrums. I chalk that up to being a perfectionistic, temperamental classical musician. But she ain't buying that excuse. I am not a loner, a very social person by upbringing and nature. Due to health concerns I cannot get out much except to
my large Baptist church, piano recitals at the Univ. Of North Texas famous school of music. If not for her, the lonliness would be overwhelming. She seems to sense that because when I start feeling the isolation, she will bug the crap out me until I get up and outside to go for a walk or play ball. Because of events and circumstances surrounding my adopting her, I believe there is some sort of God, and whatever form he/she/it manifests itself, she is a gift from whatever heaven is that I do firmly believe in. It was too inexplicable and beyond any explanation . I have a very high IQ, but that does not mean I'm wise, or even very smart. But I does make me open-minded. I sing You Are My Sunshine almost every night, as well as other old songs from 60-70 years ago, and even older. Therefore I call her my Sunshiny Riley because she's a ray of sunshine in an otherwise dark life. But since I lost everyone else, my brothers, parents, close friends, and my children, Riley has brightly lit up that dark period of my life. I am not lamenting my life, but I guess I'm bragging on a 4 legged creature who is smarter than I am, who was placed in my life at just the right time of events by whatever powers that be "out there" that I choose to call God. And I praise Him for giving me my Riley. Thanks for the opportunity to share this story.

Thanks for the quote because as I read it I couldn't hold back the years at my own story. With your help, it kept me grounded and grateful.
