:-4 Oh, what a woman MamaRider is. You were blessed to meet her, and I'm so happy everything went so well! Her love for Criss included Pinky and you, and you described her wonderfully. Criss will get better fast under her loving care.

It is good to know you got to go and visit for a bit. She seems like a nice lady.

Snooze, I just played with your little kitty thing, how cool is that.

You are so very right, Floppy. MamaRider (and the rest of the Rider family) are in my prayers every night.

Flopsy, if your intent was to make people all WEEPY--you succeeded!

You not only described Mamarider beautifully, but you wrote a lovely tribute to mothers in general. AND--you told us a bit more about yourself...your sensitivity, perception and kindness.

Well, since the lovely young lady on the right is our very own Pinky - one must assume that the handsome gentleman on the left is PapaRider and the beautiful woman in the middle would be MamaRider.

Another lovely thread by our very own Floopy.

We are all touched by the love and caring that has come out of this situation.

I always say, in most bad things, if you look *hard enough*, you can see the light and hope and love that comes out as well. :-4

Thank you to everyone who made this visit happen :-6
