After giving this much thought… following my heart…and listening to what I believe Frankie is telling me… I will lay Frankie’s Facebook page to rest on or around June 21st. The 21st is the one year anniversary of Frankie’s passing.
After I posed the question on her page yesterday I found myself quite emotional. I took Joie and Kylie for a walk to help me listen to my heart. Frankie walked with me in my heart and I knew this was the right thing to do– she agreed with a squeeze to my heart. I heard her say in her own way,”time for Joie to make her own tire tracks and paw prints in hearts.”
I invite you to follow Joie and me, via this blog or my Facebook page or National Walk ‘N Roll Dog Day page (or all) as we continue to bring positive awareness to IVDD and dogs in wheelchairs.
Please feel free to stop by Frankie’s Facebook page and save any of the photos you would like– I’ve already saved a big file of them.
Thank you to everyone who loved my little Frankie. She touched many lives, and in turn, we met so many wonderful and beautiful people. I’m so grateful. And I’m grateful to have Joie to carry on the work Frankie began. I’ll pop in a few times on Frankie’s page before I close it as a reminder of it closing down. But from this point on I won’t be posting anything else on her page until I finally lay it to rest in June. Frankie’s legacy also has a special page on my website dedicated to her. And her story lives on in the children’s book series I wrote about her, which I’ll continue to have available– as well as teach from, along with my memoir of our journey– which I’m enjoying spreading the word about.
She will never be forgotten. Always in my heart… and I know many others, too. Thank you.
