Please will as many people as possible pray for/send healing thoughts for Danté, one of my son's dogs. He is very, very sick and may not make it. The test results will be available tomorrow (if they realised that tomorrow is Saturday - otherwise Monday). He was a little better today.

Please.

It's so difficult to know that an animal is ailing as they generally do so, so very quietly. Dante will be in my prayers.

Thank you all, you wonderful, warm-hearted friends.  I didn't expect such a remarkably quick response from all of you, thank you.  I told my son that I have put in this request and that I knew there would be many prayers/healing thoughts for Danté and he is very, very grateful.  All of Danté's family - his human father, mother, brother and grandmother - and his doggy brothers, Prince and Ciro adore Danté with all of our hearts.

Thank you, Nancy, for your prayers.

Thank you, Karilea for your prayers.  Yes, we humans don't speak "dog" as well as we need to.

Thank you, Jo.  Yes, it is hard, but he is very young - not quite a year old yet.

Thank you Ida.  Tears and hugs for you about Molly.  Flicka, my beloved horse, will have met Molly at the gates of Heaven and she will be very happy there with him.  He adores cats.  But it is for you that I cry.

Thank you so much, Sea.

Thank you Yann.  I appreciate it very much.

Thank you very much Kacy.  I will tell him about the heart-shaped love you sent, when I see him next.

I hope the dog will recover, but if that is not possible than I hope the suffering will be short. I know what it's like to loose a dog, we lost our two dogs within 6 months.

Like scattered leaves...my words will flow

Thank you Titia. I am desperately sorry to hear that you lost 2 dogs in 6 months. Danté is just under a year old.

Thank you Martie. I am sure that Danté is feeling the touch and the thoughts and that it is helping.

Thank you, Kate.  I will pass on the message to the family.

I awoke at 3.45am after the worst nightmare of my life – totally unrelated to Danté to all appearances, but I am sure directly related by analogy.  Every muscle of my body was aching and I had zero energy.  Perhaps that was Danté’s turning point back to life.  I will only be able to know whether he has made it through the night at 8am South African time.  I made a cup of tea and did a lot of accelerated praying for Danté and only opened my computer a few minutes ago and found all these wonderful new messages for him.  It is now 5.55am.

Thank you, Margherita.  This is indeed a very precious prayer circle.

Thank you, Maureen.  Your healing thoughts and prayers and hugs are much appreciated.

Thank you, Alison, for your warm prayers and thoughts.

Thank you, Sue for your warm prayers and support.

Thank you, Helen for your prayers for Danté and the family.  You are right, our animals are a part of the family.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND HEALING THOUGHTS, ALL YOU WONDERFUL PEOPLE!

DANTE IS FINE!  HE DOES NOT HAVE PARVO AND IS COMING HOME TODAY!

My son and daughter-in-law are infinitely grateful for your healing thoughts and prayers too.

My son and daughter-in-law took Danté, a puppy, for his first set of injections for Parvo etc, but due to financial constraints hadn't yet taken him for his second and third set.  Apparently, the first set is always dicey and needs the second and third set to counteract the possibility of having contracted it as a result of the first set.

He developed what is probably just very bad gastro-enteritis (I don't have the details yet) which is bad enough, but that is a symptom of Parvo and so he was put on a drip and had to stay overnight in hospital.  Yesterday, he brought up his first meal, but was able to keep the second one down.

Please make sure all your animals have all the injections they need.  I would hate anyone else with 2 or 4 legs to go through what Danté and his 2-legged and 4-legged family has had to go through.  It was terrifying.

I clockwatched from 3.45am this morning till 8am when I tried to phone (but there was a voice message to say they only open at 9am) and then until 9am.  I hardly cried at all (was too busy praying and holding my breath) until I heard the good news and now the tears won't stop!!  Silly me!

THANK YOU AGAIN (AND AGAIN AD INFINITUM!)

Lots of love
Owl, Chris (my son), Sandra (my daughter-in-law), Dylan (my grandson), Prince (my son's Labrador/Husky), Ciro (my daughter-in-law's miniature, longhaired Daschund), and last BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST, THE MANLET HIMSELF, DANTE!!!

Thank you, Linda.  I love the "Godness" in your message!  Smiles.

Thank you, Margherita.  Yes, what a blessing and relief it was.  All of our Pip and family prayers were answered.

Thank you, Alison.  I can hear that "yay" accompanied by three tones of barks, loud and clear, all the way from your beautiful Alaska!

Kacy, thank YOU for sharing the pleasure of the good news and for enjoying "manlet"!  Smiles.
