My fellow Ratties, 18 Score and five days ago, I set forth on a journey. A new journey filled with promise and hope for a new future. Suddenly that journey came to a halt. Today marks the anniversary of my diagnosis with parvo, as one year ago I lay in a hospital room faced with the unknown. I thought to myself, "How can this be?" It was only days prior I was blessed with the ultimate gift and a mere two days later faced with the unthinkable.
I can only imagine the grief my skin family carried with them at that time. Their good nature brought them to a decision to adopt. I'm sure they struggled with the question: It this worth it? Is it worth it to open your heart to an orphaned Rattie only to be faced with the exorbitant cost of medical expense? Is it worth it to invest so much emotion into another only to be dealt the card of impending doom? Well my fellow ratties, I can tell you. From their hearts to my mouth, Yes it was.
My story of a great unselfish act has created my passion for helping Rat Terriers. No matter type, size, color, or characteristic we are one breed bonded together by only things we can understand. Therein lies the issues only a Rat Terrier with my intelect and foresight can undertake. It is this bond that I promise to streghten over the next year as your Rattie President. I promise to meet real goals, unlike my peers in this race, and hope to share with you my vision for the future. Together, we can create "a story" and a future for another.
