Sandi, No, he doesn't at the present. They just moved into an apartment in Tulsa from Muskogee..Just so they can be near to their second home the hospital. Now they just share all the other grandparents pets on visits. Yes, animals seem to know. Heidi was a jewel for Chance. She meant so much to all of us, I don't think they are ready yet. His aunt even remembered her on Chance's update site and that took me by total surprise. I think that Chance likes it that way though when they go there to read. I know it's precious to me.
