I am thankful to God that He is using me to teach in a small group of Christians and I have faith that with Gods grace and power, my reach and scope will extend greatly, internationally and where God leads me.

If so and if you fly with Qantas on any international or national flight in Australia,you can hear my interview with Julie McCrossin on the RadioQ Up and Away travellers programme.

Hope you catch me in flight and if not check back in March 2009 for a link to that interview.

It was fun!

Much loved and never forgotten

23 March 1994 to 25 Sept. 2008

To remember and honour my Taisha,

My Challlenge

This past week, I faced a challenge which took great courage;

My third guide dog, a beautiful golden Labrador girl, Taisha, small but strong!, gentle, sweet and patient and very intelligent, a loyal friend by my side, a joy and a blessing,I had to face that the time had come for her to go to her final rest.

Living was becoming increasingly harder for her.At fourteen and a half years, I knew my beloved dog would not manage the heat of the pending summer.

Through the sudden grief that I felt with the realization that I must make a decision to let her suffer and struggle no longer,I had to find the courage to go through the process to put her to sleep.

Many people tell me how hard it has been for them to say goodbye to their old dogs and I want to share with you here that with my Taisha,it was spiritual;

I felt every precious moment,in sharing the last hours with her, deeply and truly and then,as she breathed her last breaths,in my ear as I spoke lovingly to her in her ear,I felt that I was feeling every moment to the fullest, the pain and the truth of it.

As my tears fell on her and those last private minutes,I stood and touched her body and shared with the vet and my friend how peaceful she looked.

I felt blessed by the love in the room,hugged and thanked my vet for the help she gives to guide dogs and especially to mine.

I felt blessed to have my beautiful girl as my guide and friend for thirteen years andI felt blessed by the love and true hearts of friends who supported me during this painful time.

The culmination was a sign that my friend shared with me as we got into the car outside the vet; a white dove fluttered its’ wings as if to call our attention to it as it sat on the roof right above where Taisha lay. To me, this was a spiritual sign of peace to both me and my Taisha. I am grateful for that also.

Now, I feel that I have crossed the raging river and I made it with loving friends and God who strengthens me. In sharing this with you, my intention is to encourage you in times that challenge and wish you courage.
