Final Post
My name is Susan and I am one of Joyce's daughters. Being that I am not familiar with navigating in this site, I can only hope that this message reaches those it is intended for. Mom fought courageously, but lost her short battle with cancer on Dec. 11, 2011 after completing her treatment in Vancouver and returning home to the Peace Country she so loved.
While still undergoing treatment in Vancouver, Mom asked me to post a final message, should she be unable to do so, to all her DA friends, a farewell so to speak, and let everyone know she would not be returning.
The deep affection she felt towards many of her DA online friends was apparent

DO YOU SAY GOODBYE
How do people react when they are informed that their pet requires surgery to sustain life, or prolong the life of an aged pet?

The results we see too often are pets who are neglected or are simply handed over to the SPCA. That is the sad reality many furry friends face, and how traumatizing for them.
Fortunately there are also many happy stories regarding our four-legged friends, for instance, today in Fort St. John, B.C. I heard on
