The road to finding Diane happened in an odd way. My
dog Cheyenne had battled diabetes for almost 4 and a half years and
along the way, she developed a mammarian tumor. Over time, her tumor had
grown to be nearly the size of my fist. Her vet felt that the risk of
surgery would be too great since she had diabetes, so we opted to
monitor the tumor and take it one day at a time. In the summer of 2007,
Cheyenne's tumor began bleeding and oozing more than normal, but luckily
her vet confirmed it was NOT cancer. The area around the tumor looked
like it might be slightly infected and I wanted to help her with
something natural, so I stopped by a local shop to purchase lavender oil
to apply to her wound. While I was there, a lady suggested I try Reiki.
I went home and researched Reiki online and I chose Diane based on the
news articles, her experience and the testimonials.
I'm so glad I called!!! After talking with Diane about Cheyenne
and her ailments, I felt extremely comfortable with trying distance
reiki. It is an understatement to say how amazed I was after
Cheyenne's first session!! Although Diane didn't tell me the exact
time she would be working on Cheyenne, I knew when she was doing it
just by watching Cheyenne's movements as we were snuggled on the
couch. Cheyenne was lying next to me with her head and a paw on my
leg (as always). She hadn't stretched out in quite awhile since she
was in some pain, so when she suddenly stretched all four legs and
moved her head back for a full body stretch I knew something was
happening. I swear Cheyenne smiled when she stretched out and I
could tell she felt very good. After 20 minutes or so of blissful
stretching, Cheyenne let out a sigh and wagged her tail. I
knew she finally had some relief.
Later, when I spoke with Diane, I told her what I witnessed and
that I could tell when she performed the distance reiki. We were
both so happy! Over the next few weeks, Diane and I spoke often and
she performed more sessions. Unfortunately, nothing could save
Cheyenne as diabetes had finally taken its toll on her and she lost
her battle on August 23, 2007 at 2:20am; she was 11 1/2 years old. I
was blessed that I was there when Cheyenne was born. I was the first
person Cheyenne ever touched and I was holding her paw as she passed
away peacefully at my grandmother's house.
Diane emailed me that morning to see how Cheyenne was doing.
When I called her, she already knew Cheyenne was gone, but she
didn't know how to say it. Although Diane had told me days before
that she would be there to help me through it when Cheyenne passed,
she cried as hard as I did after experiencing the beauty that was my
little girl and my best friend in the whole world.
Thanks to Diane, I know that Cheyenne's last days were
peaceful and full of love. Diane is an amazing person who is very
caring, compassionate and understanding. I have told everyone I know
about Diane and I will highly recommend her to anyone with a pet
they love dearly. Thank you Diane for the peace you brought to
Cheyenne and myself!
