She would lay on my chest and I would feel 100 times better. And I agree that a rightly timed rightly placed hug by someone you know and care about can certainly help you feel better.

You want me to hug someone? So kudos for hugging your pup, as animals are just as much a source of healing than humans. Instead of a shorkie, I have a wonderful cat named Louie, who never fails to sense when I need some extra attention, even though there are human friends and family helping out, too. I'm hoping every day that the next call will be, to borrow Coke's tagline, the real thing!Heidi Karn Barkerhttp://www.caringbridge.org/visit/heidikarnbarkernoreply@blogger.com
