Hang in there Ariana, they are in many ways even closer than family and deserve all our love for the devotion they apply to us. My little girl Blue is turning 13 on Dec 9 so I know what it's like having a long time friend get sick...I'malways checking her stool etc. as that where you can monitor their health as the can't, and likely wouldn't complain like people do. Both you and tour friend are in my Prayers, hopefully there will be a positive resolution to both your problems.... so I reiterate....hang in there girl.. ...

Once in a while I look around,
I see a sound
and try to write it down
Sometimes they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again
