      Diagnosed with stage 4b Lymphoma at age 4.  After months of chemotherapy at the Animal  
      Medical Center in NYC, my sister and her husband had exhausted all other chemo protocols. 
      Sadly, the decision was made to let Jack go peacefully and with dignity 2 days before Christmas. 
      He was a trooper throughout the whole journey.  Treatment gave Jack and the family an extra 8
      months.  Jack spent his last days snuggled in bed with Hanna, Massimo & Rachael.  Jack will   
      never be forgotten.  He was a best friend to Martin & Carly, a younger brother to Hanna, and
      the sweetest boy one could ever meet!

Just a Dog

From time to time, people tell me, "lighten up, it's just a dog," or, "that's a lot of money for just a dog."
They don't understand the distance traveled, the time spent, or the costs involved for "just a dog."
Some of my proudest moments have come about with "just a dog."
Many hours have passed and my only company was "just a dog," but I did not once feel slighted.
Some of my saddest moments have been brought about by "just a dog,"
and in those days of darkness, the gentle touch of "just a dog" gave me comfort and reason to overcome the day.
If you, too, think it's "just a dog," then you will probably understand phrases like "just a friend," "just a sunrise," or "just a promise."
"Just a dog" brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust, and pure unbridled joy.
"Just a dog" brings out the compassion and patience that make me a better person. Because of "just a dog" I will rise early,
take long walks and look longingly to the future. So for me and folks like me, it's not "just a dog"
but an embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the fond memories of the past, and the pure joy of the moment.
"Just a dog" brings out what's good in me and diverts my thoughts away from myself and the worries of the day.
 I hope that someday they can understand that it's not "just a dog" but the thing that gives me humanity
and keeps me from being "just a human." So the next time you hear the phrase "just a dog."

Just smile, because they "just don't understand."
