Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers. Unfortunately, after weeks of searching for Lola, yesterday I found out that she was hit by woman in a minivan not 45 min after she slipped out the front door. We went out looking for her right away. But it seems when we went left she went right and visa versa. At one point she came home and played with my next door neighbors and then headed back toward the big street which we were just leaving to go search the other direction. The husband of the lady said she was either with another dog or running toward another dog on the other side of the road when she was hit. Its not a pretty story and I wont go into details but the man assured me that she was killed. He showed me where it happened and it was right where I found her tag. There were pieces of headlight and car trim right there that I didn't even notice when I found her tag and part of her collar. The man said he followed his wife home and came back to get her out of the road but she was gone. I don't know who took her away or why, I can only hope it was a compassionate act. I wish I could have brought her home and said goodbye to her, but I needed time to accept this and maybe God knew I wouldn't have been able to handle finding her like that. Idk.
I prayed for a year that she would get better. Healthy enough to run and play again in the back with her children. And she did, she was healthy all summer and fall. She ran and she played and enjoyed life. She had just got her first negative antigen test just a little over a month earlier. She had beat the the Blasto. But as many of your know, I feared a relapse so badly. Maybe in my heart, I knew that no matter how hard we fought the Blasto, she wasn't going to be able to cheat death. I don't understand why God wanted her so badly. Maybe he needed a little angel in heaven. I don't know why or how something this random and quick could take her from me after we had gone through so much. She fought so hard, bless her little heart. I will miss my baby girl forever, she was the light of my life and my best friend.
I hope you can understand that right now, this site is very hard for be to come to. I hope as time heals my heart it will become easier. But please know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you. And I'm sure Lola is trying to work miracles from heaven. Please keep the faith and know that you can beat this awful disease. If you need anything please just yell. Please keep your babies safe and secure. God bless.
Lisa.
