Feeling depressed and overwhelmed by the losses of many friends and family members during the previous few months, including our 10 year old golden Miss Abby, I felt myself heading down that dark place.

One morning, though, I opened up my Facebook page and saw two beautiful but sad looking faces staring back at me. Bella and Chloe were sisters and their Grand Mom had posted an ad for adoption. She no longer had the physical stamina or financial means to care for them.

I knew immediately that our beloved Abby had sent them to us to care for. My husband and I went to visit them and saw that their home was less than desirable for these two beautiful senior ladies.

Unfortunately, we had to wait a week before we could bring them home with us, as we were leaving town for Christmas and did not want to put them in a kennel while we were away. Chloe, 10, had several health issues, including foot fungus, ear infections, and a tumor that needed to be addressed immediately. Her older sister Bella, 11, is in great health for her age, other than being a bit on the thin side.

Both are thriving now and are a part of our family, along with their brother KC, our other golden who we adopted four years ago from a shelter.

I thank Abby everyday for sending these two sweet furbabies to us. They have brought us total love and put me back in that sunny, happy place again!
