Humankind's Best Friend

When I hobbled in the front door after coming home from the hospital, Betty was still upstairs lying curled up in  my PJ's where she had pretty much remained since I first went in to the hospital! I had to call her a couple of times before she believed her ears and she ran down the stairs at such speed that she skidded down the last few steps. She couldn't get a grip on the tiles her little legs were moving so fast in my direction!

It wasn't long before she was up on the couch cuddled in against me - a position she has rarely left since! There is a beautiful saying that says "God couldn't be everythere, so he created dogs instead". I truly believe that. To this day, Betty knows whether I'm having a good day, or a bad day. She knows how I feel often before I've even figured it out it out myself! And perhaps most amazingly, she has never jumped up on my tummy since the surgery. It's almost like she senses where I had the op.

Don't worry mum, I've got you!
