As Time Goes By Gail Pope

BrightHaven is a unique and progressive animal care organization, providing sanctuary to animals in need of specialized treatment and hospice, education for the community in holistic animal care, and rescue for animals most at risk for euthanasia. BrightHaven's mission is healing-for body, mind and spirit. For some animals, healing will bring about a new and longer life. For others, contradictory as it may sound, healing is a necessary preparation for death and the journey beyond. BrightHaven animals receive love, tender care, and compassionate assistance during the senior years as well as in the dying process. Their love and passion has supported more than 500 animals through this part of life. With its companion booklet Into the Light, which explores the actual dying process, As Time Goes By helps others who are helping loved animal companions to grow older gracefully in the best health possible.
