Goodbye Marc Anthony

It is with a heavy heart that I am posting today. On Thursday we had to say Goodbye to Our Sweet Marc Anthony. He took a turn for the worst and we couldn't do anything to help him anymore. The cancer had spread to his liver and our boy was so sick and exhausted from his battle. He put up a big fight and I know he did all he could to stay with us, but it was not to be. I held him in my arms and whispered to him, how much we loved him and what a good boy he was. Our vet helped him pass over, it was very peaceful, Thank Heaven. He is now an Angel, running free and without pain. We are just devastated, I am lost and don't know what to do. I have been so busy taking care of my boy, nursing him for the past 2 months and now, I am at a loss.

I want to Thank everyone for their kind words and for their prayers and generosity.

Another freebie for Marc Anthony

Hi All,

A little update on our boy Marc Anthony first. Our sweet boy has Canine Lymphoma and we are fundraising to help pay his vets bills. He had his 2nd chemo treatment yesterday and is a bit quiet today and sleepy. I hope he doesn't have any side effects from this one. I want to Thank everyone for their generous donations and kind words and prayers. He is a big part of our family and we will do all we can for him to give him a happy life.

Anyway, I have another freebie for you today and remember we are also selling a collab kit at deco-pages.com starting on the 14th March .

Thanks for taking the time to visit and read Marcs story. If you enjoy my freebies, a small donation would be very much appreciated.

Take Care.

New freebie QP plus Bonus QP

Here is my first freebie for you in ages. I hope you like it. It is a QP created with the Collab Fundraiser kit that will be available around the 14th March at deco-pages. Myself and some other generous designers are creating a kit to help fund Marc Anthonys chemo. He is such a sweet dog, a member of our family, and we want to give him every chance at a longer quality life. He is only 5 years old, too young to leave us yet.

He had his first round of chemo this week and seems to be improving already, and with very few side effects, except a weak bladder, so I am busy washing blankets everyday. But it is so little to ask, for him to be feeling better and being on the mend.

So, please come over to deco-pages.com soon and check out the kit or maybe you could find it in your heart to give a small donation towards his treatment.

Thank you all for your kindness and taking the time to read our story.

Hugs

Carol and Marc Anthony

I'm back

Wow! it seems like I have been gone forever. We have moved to the country and I have been unable to get a decent internet connection, until now. I am finally ready to get back to designing and hopefully sharing more freebies with you all.

I appreciate the Thanks I get from you as it is nice to know you enjoy my work.

On a sadder note we were given some devastating news last week. Our Sweet boy Marc Anthony has been diagnosed with cancer (canine lymphoma). He will be starting chemo tomorrow and we hope it will be a success and give him some quality of life for a year or more. I know you pet lovers will understand how heartbreaking this news has been.

I have been so blessed though as Deb, my boss at deco-pages has generously offered to waive her fees and sponsor a fund raising kit to help with Marcs vet bills. Many of the wonderful designers in our community are generously donating items to the kit, so it should be a beauty. I hope to have it up for sale at deco by the second week of March, so keep an eye out for it.

I will keep you all updated on Marcs progress too.

Thanks for taking the time to visit and read our story.
