In Memory of Fascha
TDIAOV
November 1992 - December 2004
Handler: Mel Goldfine
"Tis with a broken heart I say Goodbye to my Darling Daughter Fascha, TDIAOV.
I, only believe, that the best 'medicine' is to try to LIVE through the memories she has created, as much as it hurts to remember my loss, it also brings a momentary smile at the very same time, only to be dulled again by the absolute loss......
This WAS a very SPECIAL TDI dog, they are allllllll special, but Fascha was very unique in several ways. Her disposition and attitude were of an extremely 'laid back' dog, but yet, VERY intelligent and observant of what was going on around her, and KNOWING where she was 'needed' even though she did not openly reveal her awareness. When she did her TDI work, she tended frequently to drift toward someone sitting alone and unattended, to make sure they were ok.
Fascha was a TDI dog for about eight years, and WE lost track of all our visits....I bet at least 500 or more.
Fascha, for the last 12 months of her life was in a wheelchair, she lost use of her rear legs because of DM. It was this last year that said it all. She VISITED in her wheelchair to all the same places we had always been to. TOO many places to tell.........and my how she 'touched' people just because of her disability." Mel Goldfine
