today is lily's death anniversary ... still makes me so sad when i think of lily. poor girlie suffered so much before she left us. i can't believe it is exactly one year already. life is very different without her and no other dog can replace her.

we are very happy to have jake (our newest member of the family). he is such a good and gentle doggie. 2-3 days ago...he had this bubble that grew close to his mouth which was the same place where lily had her tumor...we took him to the vet since the bubble bursted and it was bleeding...the vet said something probably bit him or some grass got into his skin...how ironic that it was in the same area. jake is on medication right now so he is doing fine....kinda makes me think...is that lily's way of telling us she is around...i dont know.
