EVERETT BAGBY



Everett Bagby became obviously ill in late February 2011 and to be exact, I took him to the doctor on February 21, 2011 because he couldn't breath well. His x-rays showed how entire right lung to be white on the x-ray. I knew this wasn't good before the doctor said a thing. The doctor said that he thought Everett may have pneumonia. I was suspicious of something worse from the beginning because i wasn't catching anything from Everett.
On March 3, we were given a firm diagnosis of lung cancer. Then on March 5 we learned it was adenocarcinoma to be exact. Adenocarcinoma especially in stage 4 which is the stage Everett had is not curable but treatable in most cases.
Everett took 3 treatments but the cancer continued to grow regardless. On May 27, Everett suffered a stroke. He lost partial use of his right side. He went to physical therapy to learn how to help me help him after he came home.
He came home on June 8. He was home for 10 days and passed away at 7 pm on June 18.
He is much missed but he is in a much better place than the rest of us here on earth.
RIP sweet Everett. I miss you and love you.

Introducing Rosie a mini dachshund

Rosie came here recently as a new foster. Rosie wants to be an alpha dog so we are working on that. Us HUMANS are alpha and she must accept other dogs in her circle. So far her progress is coming along fine.
She has to be treated for those nasty heartworms before adoption.
She seems to like her sweater but if she gets too hot she try's to rub it off. She is very comical sometimes.

Everetts tatoo of DaisyBelle

My husband loves his basset hound, DaisyBelle. He had her tattooed on his leg. The artist owns Skin Workx in Pelham, Alabama.

My grandmother, CC

I don't have any pictures that I've taken myself. They were all lost during family crisis. I do have this one picture I took a picture of and miss her dearly.
Cc as she was called had the most amazing personality and loved all. She would take in those who needed help and was never judgmental of anyone.
Her birthday is January 26, the day before mine.
I love you, CC.
