Dearest Angels π,
I hope this message finds you well π
I'd just like to thank each and every one of you for your heartfelt condolences and supportive messages on the loss of our beautiful Ruby. They really have meant the world to me after a really horrific last journey with her, but it was Digbys Angels π that saved the day !
It has taken me quite some time to process the discovery of Digby at the end of last year and to grieve for my precious boy and now Ruby, too.
Although I'm grateful to have said goodbye to Digby and now have him home alongside Ruby, I still have so many unanswered questions. There is a year unaccounted for, and I still wrestle with wanting to know where he was or who he was with.....π€
HOWEVER, I have decided the way for me to get full closure is to let go of the "what ifs" and turn a negative into a positive.
Everywhere I go, I still bump into you angels who show me nothing but kindness and compassion. You all have your stories of how the search for Digby touched you over those 18months so I've come up with the ideaπ‘ of compiling those stories into a bookπ as a tribute to our precious community dog digs...πΆthis would be a lasting legacy to him but I need your help. π
I would love you to send in your story, be as creative or outside the box as you like, perhaps you'd like to tell me how you first discovered Help find Digby or how you helped in anyway with the search. Maybe you would like to write me a story of his adventures during the year he was missing? Maybe the kids or grandkids would like to send some drawings? Make me smile, make me cry, it's up to you, but it would mean the world to put together all the amazing memories of strangers being kind and giving me the strength to carry on.β€οΈ
You have to dream bigπ and I always joked that this Incredible journey should be a film or a book so this is our first step as a fundraiser for Digbys Angels. We will create and print the book and it will be available for you all to purchase. Any money raised goes towards supporting owners of lost dogs in Norfolk. The book will keep the memory alive of our dear Digby and how he touched the hearts of thousands of people.
You can write to me, email, pm or WhatsApp your stories. All contacts are at the top of the page .
I can't wait to hear from you all and see where this journey takes me next. Together, we are building on the foundations of Digbys Angels π πͺ½ a beautiful community group, to come out of such heartbreak in honour of my boy.
Can't thank you all enough.πβ€οΈ
Much love
Vicki
