Arrival Story:
I saw her adverised in a dog magazine . She was a pure black GSD aged 19wks. She was lovingly bred and raised on a small Welsh hill farm in the U.K ... the land of my birth although I have now moved to the U.S. It was a 600 mile round trip in black ice and freezing fog to bring her home . She was my dream dog... the one I had wanted all my life. She saved my life three times.

Bio:
Cleo collapsed on Tues 16th March 2005..... I called the vets out .They got her back to the surgery ... threw everything at her. X ray showed 100s of tiny cancers in her chest. Vet said that if she hadnt been in such good condition (irony) she would have shown long ago... but she was never in pain .He thought that the hormone rush from her last season ,which had just ended , had triggered the collapse. Wednesday I went to the vets to be with her. Laid on the floor with her. Talked to her about the beautiful Welsh hill farm house where she was born... I sent her spirit back there. I called the breeder on Thurs... I always kept in touch and sent letters and pics at Xmas. He lit a lantern for her to find her way home and walked the dogs out to ''meet'' her on Thurs Her full name was Gaelic .... Caecilaltdu... means ''field where the spring rises''...she 1st swam in the pool as a 6week old puppy. She died in my arms ... loved, stroked and safe.... the last thing she heard was me telling her how beautiful she was She was only 8 1/2 and had never had a day sick in her life. it was all over in 24 hrs. At least she didn't suffer. She was the light in my soul .... a very special Lady.

This was a special night ... we lit candles across the world in Rememberance of those Angel Furs and loved humans lost to this awful disease. This candle lighting starts in Sierra's garden in Maine every year. My Cleo has a candle stick there.... and my dear friend Debbie (Wyoming's Mum )lights it in Cleo's honour for me.

I have put a few pics on Cleo's page... but will make a slide show as I know Debbie will have some pics to add.

Being able to also do this in my OWN garden this year in the memorial garden I have started to make for Cleo... meant so very very much. SO many of you joined in this beautiful Rememberance.THANKYOU !

Here is the full set of pics from my garden for the Candle Lighting.

The Candle Lighting in Cleo's Garden for Canine Cancer and for ALL loved and lost. 23-7-11

Interestingly... they were with us tonight... a wind kicked up from a dead 104F calm as I lit the candles.. and I know others have said the same. THEY never leave us... we are in their care...

Candle Lighting and more from the Heart

Here is a small favor to ask of all of you.

On July 23rd at 7:30 P.M.EDT Wyoming's Mum will be having another Canine Cancer Hero Candle Lighting at Sierra's garden in Maine for our heaven and earth angels. They will be lighting each and every stake in Sierra's garden that has our angel's names burned on them, and a healing section of candles for our heroes that are living through the challenges of cancer.

Sadly each year the number of names in the garden grows .....so I'm sure that our angels will have something special planned for that evening.
Every year they seem to show up and give us the gift of their presence.

If everyone can please light a candle at 7:30 PM EST and place it outside so our angels can see our tribute of love for them in all different parts of the world, and a second candle to show our unity for positive thoughts of healing for those battling this disease ....."

Here is a link to the video from the 2004-2010 ceremony. 2004-2010 Candle Lighting

It is long but if you take the time to view it you will see how very special it is and how honoured we would be to know all our pals are lighting candles at the same time too.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So that's it, just a simple favour that you join us and light two candles wherever you are at 7:30 PM EDT Saturday 23rd July so all the Angels know how much they are missed and loved.


Wyoming's Mum is again lighting a candle stake I made for my Beloved Cleo. She has so kindly said she will take some photos and I will write a another Diary for Cleo then as well. My beautiful girl would have been 15 on the 25th July.. as it was she never made it past 8 1/2 when struck by this awful disease.

Thankyou my friend....... please read Wyoming's Diary too !

We now have a new home and wonderful 2 acre garden and I am making a special "Cleo's Garden"

I had an idea.. and wanted so to do this for Cleo's Garden .Yesterday I bought in Hobby Lobby a clear round glass jar with lid .It is about 4" diam.. and 7" high. I am going to get some of the glass florists pebbles and I am going to write the name of all the Fur Angels we have on the pebbles and put them in the jar and put the jar out in "Cleo's Garden" when I am here. It should shine in the sunlight. I need to know any names that need to be included. Email me even thought I know the obvious ones.. it would help me to be able to make a list.

This garden is starting from nothing... and the ground is.. well think sand and arid and forest floor !. It will have windchimes.. and a pebble pool and bit by bit it will grow and become the little corner I want it to be. I have made a Shutterfly site for it.. and the pics are ongoing and will be for a long time. If you want to look.. please do..

My heart is breaking.... Levi is one of my oldest friends and his Mum is a very very spacial Lady.

Levi had a wonderful life.. and today at 2pm PDT he is sailing onward to the stars.

I want to Celebrate this wonderful boy's life so that death cannot ever hold dominion

LEVI'S PAGE

LIGHT A CANDLE FOR LEVI


Sail on Fair Winds Sweet Boy

Going to celebrate your life so that death can NEVER EVER win.

You brought up many pups and kits.. 3 kids and 2 humans. You will sit big and strong and large in the stars

Holding you and yours TIGHT in our arms.


And if I go, while you are still here...
Know that I still live on,
Vibrating to a different measure,
Behind a thin veil that you cannot see through.
You will not see me, so you must have faith.
I will wait there for the time when we can soar together again, both aware of each other.
Until then, live your life to the fullest.
And when you need me, just whisper my name in your heart,
...I will be there.

"Ascension" Colleen Corah Hitchcock
