Heavenly Father answers prayers! Lacey had a
miraculous and speedy recovery and was finally released from the hospital at 2:40pm Saturday February 21st, 2009. Cassie and I on the
other hand were sent home the night before at 10:00pm. Being discharged without our daughter was torture, but we were so excited to hear this
separation would only be one night long. Lacey's stay at Banner Gateway was 10 minutes shy of three days as apposed to the possible 5-7 days originally projected. We owe a great deal of gratitude because of the many prayers offered by all of you. Thank you again for your care and concern.
Upon her arrival, our four dogs were
somewhat vocal about the addition to our family. So, to calm them and maybe ease the
curiosity caused by the strange new crying and
gurgling sounds, I carried each dog one by one, and introduced them to Lacey at a safe distance. Now, keep in mind, I've learned a great deal about my dogs and their behavior over the years. I know how to read them, so I'm usually aware of the cause of certain reactions. Shortly after
Curly, Polly, Tyke and Scout each saw Lacey, they were returned to their cage. This was followed by the most pathetic whining. The kind of whining usually heard by three dogs, when they are
jealous of the lucky fourth dog
privileged enough to be invited into the house with us at the time. I can only assume our four k-9 friends were under the impression that our new little girl was one of them and that she was the lucky one of the day.
