LoreleiHI has asked me to put this message from her at the top of the diary:
Dervish has now died. There is no more need to keep donating unless you want to contribute towards another service dog. I thank you all for your help in my time of need. If you want your donation returned to you, please kosmail me.Please read the final update: Dervish has been put to sleep due to his severe injuries.There are no words to convey my thanks, or the help you gave in making Dervish comfortable until the end.
Mahalo nui.
This evening, I heard from a friend - LoreleiHI. She and her service dog, Dervish, were in a car accident. Lorelei is in the hospital with nothing more, thankfully, than severe muscle strain. The van's airbag did its job for her.
But Dervish was not so lucky.
