Goodbye Dear Friend

My friend lost her short battle with cancer on Wednesday, February 2. She was 64 years old.

She first found the lump on her leg in early May. It was taken seriously in August when it was biopsied and the results were a rare muscle cancer. Chemo and radiation did nothing to halt it and Judy expired in the middle of an epic blizzard at a local nursing home in the middle of the night. Luckily her mother was able to get down from Eau Claire before the storm and was able to say good-bye.

She was a great friend and taught a lot a people a lot about dog training.

I miss you, Judy.
