still can do it, a letter to Dr. Schutz, The Celebration of Life of Deoge.

 all she ever wanted was to be with me,

any room I was in, such a bond, but never demanded All my attention.

She was my running buddy, sprints, and she loved it.

she was helper raising my kids, all I'd have to say

was go get him Deoge, wake Alec up,

and she'd go running downstairs and lick him.

she thought she was me.

when we went to the dog park, she never

barked at another dog, but they all barked at her,

just walked away, and did her own thing,

this was her time in the park.

she never sniffed other dogs butts,

even if we went one of the walking/running

trail.  she did look for other dogs though

walking when we got to the trail behind

the swimming pool, there weren't many,still she never barked,

just wanted to touch noses and say Hi.

she loved kids and they loved her,

so shaggy and cute.

she didn't like it though when a neighbor

dog would come running thru our yard.

one time with one of, they went jaw

to jaw through the screen door.

this was Her house, and we never moved

her entire life.  she didn't like it in the car, lots of anxiety and

shaking, but stood like a statue when was groomed.

she could open the sliding screen door out to

the deck with her paw. so smart.

she was deeply loved, and gave so much back.

one of kind.

she will be deeply missed.

she'll be buried with me.

thanks for all your doctor care.

and thanks for reading this.

Don't it make my brown eyes, blue

What is the genetic mutation "Originally, we all had brown eyes," said Professor Hans Eiberg from the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine. "But a genetic mutation affecting the OCA2 gene in our chromosomes resulted in the creation of a "switch," which literally "turned off" the ability to produce brown eyes." The OCA2 gene codes for the so-called P protein, which is involved in the production of melanin, the pigment that gives colour to our hair, eyes and skin. The "switch," which is located in the gene adjacent to OCA2 does not, however, turn off the gene entirely, but rather limits its action to reducing the production of melanin in the iris -- effectively "diluting" brown eyes to blue. The switch's effect on OCA2 is very specific therefore. If the OCA2 gene had been completely destroyed or turned off, human beings would be without melanin in their hair, eyes or skin colour -- a condition known as  albinism...
