After a really long and difficult week, we've lost a good friend in our house today. Our Ernie passed away at 16. Ten days ago, everything was good. But, when he went in to get his teeth cleaned, they found a cancerous tumor in his lower jaw. Kathleen and I are losing a friend, a member of our family. He's like our baby.
We will so much miss him. I know he didn't want to go now, either.
