Our word of the day is Euphoria...

Definition of euphoria:  a feeling of well-being or elation

According to the docs, Rocco’s tumor is pressing on the part of the brain that controls the sensation of euphoria. This is a mixed blessing because on one hand it makes it hard to realistically process what is happening, but for him after 7 full days of treatment with 5 more weeks to go it is the side effect we would all wish for. No pain, no worry, no discomfort.

So it is in the spirit of Euphoria, that we introduce you to Winston. our new Dal Vera.

A 7 week old double doodle puppy.

Here’s a Facebook link to a tribute to our beloved Buddy, the sweet one Winston is now taking over for, to protect and to love.

Enjoy,

    Congrats on gracing your home with Winston. He arrives at perfect timing to walk the walk with his new family. Ha! A puppy... Such a special tribute to Buddy. Thanks for sharing. I'm sure Buddy will be whispering in Winston's ear showing him the ropes. Send pics! :) Let's see what this doodle does. Love you Dal Veras.

    What a blessing euphoria can be. I hope that it allows the treatments to seem easier. I know Winston, your new puppy will help. All of you remain on the prayer list at our church. That means that 1000 extra people are praying for Rocco's health and your strength and how much Kendall is going to love that puppy. Prayers and Blessings, BettyANn
