Status and Update

What's that about time healing all wounds? It's been 15 weeks now, and the wounds left by Izzie's disappearance aren't healed at all. The determination to find her hasn't diminished; it's as much there as is the pain of her loss, and of knowing that she's out there on her own, missing home and family as much as she is being missed.

Izzie was born on November 15th, 2007, so her second birthday is the saddest birthday you can imagine. It's not how we ever imagined it would be. The birthday card that came from her vet, while appreciated, did not have the effect it was intended to have when it was sent out, if you catch my meaning.

But on to what's been happening.

This week there were sighting calls to respond to, but none that were Izzie.

A couple of other lost dogs out there got the help they needed; not reunions with their people, but help in out of the rain, nonetheless.

Posting fliers in the rain was more fun than a barrel of monkeys. The things we do for love.

To end on a happy note, a kind benefactor has, once again, stepped forward to offer help, this time in the form of some Collegiate Times ads that will run next week. Be looking out for them on the 19th and the 21st, which is when the student staff there advised are the best days to run them.
