(thank you Miss Asta!!!)
I am absolutely floored at the amount of love that we have received during the scariest day of my life… sitting here in the ICU, seeing the love of my life so very sick, breaks my heart into tiny little pieces that turn around and stab me again and again. I stroke his hair, squeeze his hands, and even was able to give him a kiss on the lips today and then I collapse into my chair by his bedside. I cry a little and reach for my laptop, and every single time I log on my mailbox is flooded with well-wishes from animals around the world. It makes me chuckle a bit because while we have never met in person, through reading and writing our blogs I feel like I know every single one of you, that we are real friends, the kind that are there for you not just in good times, but in bad.

Words simply cannot express my gratitude for all of you at this very scary, very difficult time. Thank you for your wishes, and thank you for the beautiful, fun, and poignant distractions that reading you comments is to me. I want to be there every moment for my husband, and I want him to know how special he is. You all know him as Bogart’s dad, to me he is just Klaus. He cannot respond to me directly, but I read him every single comment – and I just know deep down inside he hears and understands.

THANK YOU SO MUCH,

Lulu

  4. Bogie, his mom and his dad…

    I know we don’t know each other but I’ve enjoyed reading your blog for quite awhile now. The love your mom and dad have for each other and for you has always brought a smile to my face. I’ve enjoyed your pictures and funny commentary describing all your fun adventures. Since I read about what happened, I’ve been praying as much as I can for your dad to recover and I know that many others are doing the same thing. This is the hardest thing to go through and I know from experience how time seems to slow in a hospital, so make sure to give your mommy lots of kisses and love when she comes back home in between visits Bogie! Take care and may God be with you in this trying time. – dannielle

  41. What a scary position to be in … our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I think the support group of “animals” has turned out to be the most amazing part of the whole cat/dog/pet blogosphere. Every day, I am amazed by the kindness of relative strangers who are connected only through the CB website. Please stay strong for Klaus.
    Purrs… Jasper, Josie, Huggy Bear, Maggie and our Mom and Dad
