I lost both of my parents recently, she responded. It still seemed like yesterday. I left home after they passed... It was hard being where I had been able to see them everyday, but now couldn't...

While she dearly loved to play, she knew her priorities were the pack, and she didn't want anyone to think she was skimping out on her duties.
