This has been a very sad weekend for us. My brother, Copper, died in the hospital Friday. He couldn't get rid of that pneumonia. My mommy has cried and cried. Copper was very special to her, since she rescued him and got him all fattened up and feeling better. My daddy said he owed the vet a gazillion bones for all Copper's doctor bills, and it hurts to see Mom cry about all of it. I am doing my best to love them and stay really close to them. I haven't eaten one thing off the table or the kitchen counter, either. I'm being a good, good girl. My mommy put her arms around me and told me about Copper. She hadn't been spending a lot of time with me, and I was mad at her, but now I see why she was otherwise-occupied. Boy, do I feel like a dumb dog. Mommy said I will see Copper one day when I cross the Rainbow Bridge, but I miss him now. I have nobody to howl with. It's very sad. Love, Fred
