Sad times.

The time came to say goodbye to Bernadette today. She's struggled on, but life without the use of her back legs was proving hard and grump-inducing - my mum has been bitten many times this week whilst trying to nurse her back to health. It was a horribly hard decision, but I think it was the right one.

My dad made her a nice wooden comfy box, and sent me a picture so I could see his message on the top. She really did have the most wonderful ears.
