For my Mom Mom dog

There is nothing in this world that brings me to instant tears faster then the neglect/abandonment or abuse of an elderly animal.  The night I met Mom Mom dog, my life changed for good.  She taught me about compassion, about what it means to love....about what it means to accept imperfection...about what it means to live life to the fullest.  Mom Mom knew compassion, Mom Mom knew imperfection, and Mom Mom embraced life and lived it to it's fullest.  She played, she bitched, she snuggled and she fought like a UFC champion.  Mom Mom never turned from a fight, she never stood for only one snackie.  Mom Mom was strong through adversity, neglect, medical illness and aging.  She walked with the strength of a queen.  Mom Mom is my inspiration.
