On December 10th, 2008 we were shocked and devastated to learn that our beloved George -- our Airedale Terrier who is the center of our universe and the focus of our lives -- had a large mass in his chest.
The past weeks have been a blur, and a literal emotional roller-coaster ride of emotions and nearly hourly new experiences and challenges.
This experience has become George's most challenging adventure thus far, and his courageous battle marks the first enemy he has ever known: Mediastinal Lymphoma.
Fortunately, our precious Georgie is facing this adventure in the same inspirational manner in which he has experienced life thus far: with a buoyant spirit, an abundance of tenacity (and a hint of stubbornness), admirable fortitude, remarkable resilience, trademark zeal, extraordinary stamina, trust, bravery, and even a sense of humor.
It is with excrutiating sadness and unbearable, nearly indescribable devastation -- and a bit of surrealness -- that I must report that our beloved Georgie passed away on Wednesday, January 7, 2009
