Hope To Buy My Own Sih-tzu For Mr Birthday June 26

I don't know how many more birthdays I have left as each year my health becomes seriously worse. I am home alone most of the time and do get very lonely. It wasn't that way when I hadm My Shih-Tzu"Scooter" as she was always by my side. I used to particularily enjoy coming home from the store and see her tiny feet scrambling on the floor trying to get a grip to greet me and hope up into my arms. I can not explain the joy I felt as with her by my side or on my lap nothing else matters. She died suddenly 11/6/09 and a big piece of me went with her. Since then my health has steadily declined. I told my doctors about this recently and they all basically had the same advice.
