I don't know how to say this. Audrey passed away yesterday because what we'd thought was some back trouble was really cancer on her spine and throughout her abdomen. When we went for the MRI it was clear that it was not what anyone had thought. Things got so bad so fast we are bewildered and heartbroken. We had to put her to sleep and were there with her when she left. I felt like it was all a dream, but today she is not here. I know that everyone loved Audrey and could see how special she was. I whispered the love from around the world to her. I know she felt it. I want to believe she is running on the beach like she was in this video from last summer. We will always love you, Audrey.

Oh, Alicia. I am so sorry about Audrey. I know how hard it is to lose a pet. It's absolutely heartbreaking. Fraidy, my boyfriend's cat was put to sleep yesterday as well, and I'm heartbroken over it. I hope Audrey and Fraidy find each other up in pet heaven and take care of each other.

I just watched the video of beautiful Audrey joyfully running on the beach and sat at my desk tears streaming down my face. Such a shock for you and such a sudden goodbye. I am so, so sorry for your loss. Dogs just don't live long enough lives. I am sure that she is now, zooming around that beautiful expanse of beach with her tennis ball.

I will give my dogs an extra kiss & hug today in Audrey's memory.

xo, Susan
