We are probably in her final days.
I am heartbroken.

- Hartwood Roses
- My name is Connie, and I own Hartwood Roses ... an educational rose garden in Virginia that specializes in rare and unusual antique roses. I am a Certified Rosarian, a Master Gardener, a carpenter, a remodeler, and a dreamer. (The most up-to-date list of all the roses I grow ... 800 varieties so far ... is on my web site: HartwoodRoses.com) I love roses (especially old roses), and gardening, and history, and building things ... all of this has come in handy as we restore our historic house (built in 1848) renovate the outbuildings, and design the gardens. This blog allows me share whatever is happening in the garden, at my nursery, and around the house. I think it's wonderful to hear from other people who love the same things I do.

Hartwood Roses ... Heirloom Old Garden Roses and More
Hartwood Roses was a small farm nursery, located just north of Fredericksburg, Virginia. The retail portion of the business closed in 2012, and the mission shifted to my true love … speaking to organizations and garden clubs and giving classes to educate budding rose gardeners. The display gardens here contain over 800 different varieties of roses … with emphasis on rare and historic varieties, and popular classics that are well-suited for modern gardens.

Oh, I'm so very sorry and sad that this was the diagnosis. Poor you and poor Emma. I know you'll get through this because you are strong, and that you'll do right by Emma, but I wish it had been better news. Hugs for both of you.
Connie, Sorry to hear that. I know your pain, we are going through this with our St. Benard Ginger. Thoughts are with you....
Oh, Connie, I am so sorry. Poor sweet little thing. I feel for you both.
Oh gosh. I'm so, so sorry. Many hugs from me and my grey baby.
Connie I am writing this with tears in my eyes. I am so sorry and I send you prayers and strength to go through these next days. No words can comfort, but know your friends are here for you and Emma.
Loving hugs for you and Emma.

Connie, oh so not the news we were looking for. I am soooooo sorry. My heart hurts for you.
Sometimes things are a little easier to bear when you know that friends care. I've been there and it just an awfully scary and sad time. Words are just so inadequate right now; I don't know what to say. I hug you tight Deb

Sending you hugs!

Connie, I don't get a chance to stop by your blog very often but I did today only to read this post and feel your pain. I am so very, very sorry it has turned out this way. Emma has such a lovely soft look in her eye and her love for her human shines through.
You and Emma are in my thoughts.
Jo

Our hearts are with you and Emma. All we can do is support you and help you through your grief. Much love to one rose friend to another! There is a plan and we may not like the plan but there is a plan. I just hope Emma doesn't suffer~

Hola, siento mucho lo de Emma, pero también ella debe estar feliz de que está con personas que la quieren tanto y que le demuestran su amor hasta el final. Hay tantos animalitos en el mundo que no tienen quien los proteja.
Translation for Shirley's comment, courtesy of Google:
"Hello, I'm sorry Emma, but she should be happy that she is with people who want both and to show their love to the end. There are so many animals in the world who have no one to protect them."
Thank you, Shirley!
I am speechless. Really.
It is so hard to lose a family member.
Thoughts, hugs, prayers, angel wings, and love being sent to Emma and family.
Much love, misha
I'm so sorry. I'll be holding you close in my heart and prayers.
Dear Connie, I'm so sad for you, and heartbroken for beautiful Emma. In all your pictures of her there is an aura of such quiet grace. My thoughts and prayers are with you. JD
Connie
I read the terrible news on FB about sweet Miss Emma. She and Daniel were my inspiration in adopting Lucy. Our prayers are will your entire family.
R/ Liz M, Lucy, Charlie, and all the cats.
My first visit to your blog and first sight of Emma's lovely face, but please accept the very sincere sympathy and best wishes of a fellow greyhound lover. May there be warm furry comfort for you in the days to come.
Oh, I'm so sorry ..just catching up and see this bad news. Oh, no words, no words. just lots of hugs hugs hugs
I'm so very sorry. My heart hurts for you. My dog has terminal cancer, too. It's a terrible thing.....
