I am very sad and sorry that you lost some of your dogs.:( I look up to you and pray for you and our country that nothing of this sort will ever happen again. But be strong and brave and pray. And believe me God will help those soliders out in Afganastan be strong and fight hard. I have Perthes (perr-these) a hip disease and since I was 8 months old I have had a lot of surgeries. You name what it, they have done to me. If I would guess I think I've had maybe...100 surgeries, from then to last December 2001. Anyway, I pray every morning and night that God would make me strong and brave (and not to have anymore surgeries) and that he give the men who are fighting for our Country saftey, and for all the people who died in the Hi Jacking and W.T.C for their families to be brave. If you just close your eyes say a prayer, God will listen to you and he will give you that spirt. Thank You 4 reading this long letter!
