你們有否聽過每隻小動物都是上天給人類的天使嗎？牠們來到人間有著不同的使命，有些成為人類的食物，有些負責運輸，有些要淪為實驗品，有些則成為寵物。總之，牠們的一生也為我們付上無條件的愛。
Have you ever heard that animals are angels sent by God? Each of them carries different missions, e.g. some becomes human's food, some are responsible for human transportation, some becomes guinea pigs for animal testings, and some becomes pets. In short, their lives are for us unconditionally.
我姐姐家的狗剛過生了，牠叫豬豬，是一頭男的約瑟爹利，還有一個月便九歲的牠死於心臟病，醫生說，我們要做的也做過了，而唯一最後可做的，便是陪伴。
My sister's dog (9 years old) passed away last week, died from a heart failure. His name is "Ju Ju", a gorgeous little Yorkshire Terrier. During his last days, the vet said we have done all we can, all we can do is to accompany him.
牠在bb 的時候是姐夫在寵物店買回來的（當然現在知道應該要領養的），因為當時姐姐一家在美國，而姐夫則是＂太空人＂，獨自一人留在港工作，所以便買了豬豬回來陪伴他，豬豬的童年，是陪伴著姐夫長大的。When he was a baby, my brother-in-law bought him from a pet shop (of course we now know that we should adopt and NEVER buy from pet shop). At that time, my sister and her family lived in the United States, while her husband was the "astronauts" staying alone in Hong Kong for work, so he bought Ju Ju as a companion. Therefore, Ju Ju's childhood was raised by my brother-in-law.
後來姐姐回港後，豬豬便成了她的兒子，每天都會帶牠外出散步，買東西(全是牠的玩具和衣服），最重要是，每晚也會為豬豬炮製最美味又有營養的大餐，豬豬給我姐姐寵壞了。
Later, my sister returned to Hong Kong, Ju Ju became her son. She took him out for walk every day, buying him all kinds of toys and clothes and most importantly, she have spent all her time and love cooking the most delicious and nutritious meal for him. Ju Ju has been spoiled by my sister.
由於當時姐姐的婚姻出現了些問題，所以她把所有愛和感情都寄託在豬豬身上，而豬豬亦稱職地陪伴了姐姐行了一段灰暗的路。
While my sister encountered marriage problem, she devoted all her love and affection to Ju Ju. Ju Ju became her soul companion, comforted her through the difficult times.
姐姐最終也鬱了癌病，在治療期間，被迫和豬豬分離，我相信這是除了疾病所帶來的痛苦外，最痛的莫過於此。她忍痛地把豬豬交託給我照顧。因而，牠到來了我的生命中。
My sister was later diagnosed with cancer. During the treatment, she was forced to separate from Ju Ju. I believed this was the most painful decision for her. She entrusted me to take care of Ju Ju. This is how Ju Ju entered my life.
其實在牠來之前，我剛報了動物傳心術初班，還打算問姐姐借豬豬一件玩具作為上堂之用。怎料，上天的安排就是如此奇妙，祂給我的並不只玩具，而是一隻真實的狗給我做練習，使我在學習的過程中更得心應手。Funny enough, before I knew Ju Ju was going to stay with me, I had just registered for Rosina's Animal Communication class. I was intended to ask my sister to borrow Ju Ju's toy for my AC practice. This was such an unexpected arrangement designed by God. He gave me not only a toy, but a real dog to do the exercises, made me more confident during the learning process.
豬豬初來我家，當然要給我顏色，因牠要的是我姐姐，不是我！牠會在晚上不停地吠，在家中每一角落留下紀念品（尿尿），還把我的衣服當毛巾...牠，令我抓狂！
When Ju Ju first came to my house, of course, he would not be easily settled, because he wanted my sister, not me! He began to bark all night, and left his souvenirs (pee) in every corner of the house, and treated my clothes as his own towel etc... He was driving me crazy!
那個晩上，牠又不停地吠，我已足足一個星期睡不到了，由於白天要工作，身心的疲倦已到了極點，我實在忍無可忍！於是我抱起牠，哭著說：「豬豬，我明白你不想來我家，但你媽媽病了，她不是要拋棄你，而是要和死神搏鬥，如果你真的愛她，你就得和我合作，乖乖地等她痊癒便送你回去，你再這樣每晚吠我忍受不了，我也不能要你了，你明白嗎？我求你不要再吠！」
As his usual night, he began to bark. It has been a full week that I could not sleep. I was extremely exhausted physically and mentally after daily work, so I picked him up and cried: "Ju Ju, I understand that you do not want to come to my house, but your mother is sick. She did not abandon you, but to fight with death. If you really love her, you and I have to patiently wait for her to recover and I will send you back as soon as possible. I cannot stand you barking every night. If you keep doing this, I could not keep you, you understand? I beg you not to bark! "
自那晚後，一切靜止了！牠終於肯和我通力合作。當然，我的傳心術也大派用場！
Since that night, he stopped barking! He has finally agreed to co-operate with me. Of course, I had fully utilised my animal communication skill and it did help me a great deal!
第一次和牠傳心，是牠正在露台狂吠雀鳥，我在房間用傳心叫牠收聲，返入來！牠真的第一時間收聲跑回房間用疑問的眼神望住我！嘩！我得左啦！真的感應到！豬豬，你不要少看我，我是可以和你交心的！
I still recall the first time I did animal communication with him, he was at the terrace barking at the birds. I connected to him and told him to shut up and came inside to the house. It was really the first time he shut up and ran inside and looked at me with doubt! Wow! I have done it! True connection with Ju Ju without words! "Ju Ju, Don't you dare look down on me anymore, I could actually talk to you".
自此之後，我們的感情越來越好，當然牠會不時頂咀，例如我會自稱是媽媽，牠會說你不是媽媽...我便告訴牠誰照顧你誰就是媽媽！
Since then, we have been getting very close together. From time to time, we have argument, for example, I would call myself "mother" in front of him and he always denied and said that you are not my mother ... and I said whoever taking care for you would become your mother!
牠在我家的四個月，我們早晚也會拍㸱散步去，牠，已是我生活的一部分！
During the four months of his stay, we walked together every morning and evening. He was already part of my life!
可惜，姐姐最終也敵不過癌魔，兩年前她走了！最後，豬豬便回去姐姐家由她的女兒照顧，記得牠知道自己要返家時十分雀躍，但郤不忘回頭跑過來親我一下，牠的確是一隻很有「風度」的小狗！
Unfortunately, my sister could not win the battle and died from cancer two years ago! Eventually, Ju Ju went back and stayed with my niece and took care by her. When he knew that he could finally go home and stay with my niece, he was so excited. He even gave me a goodbye kiss before he left. He is such a gentle boy.
小女兒剛失去媽媽，心情既沉重又難過，這段日子，全靠豬豬的陪伴，令她過了最艱難的一關。豬豬繼續使出牠可愛本色，把原本沉寂的家，加潻了一分生氣。這正是姐姐留下給小女兒的禮物，從豬豬身上，把她的愛和陪伴延續...
It was a difficult time for my niece losing her mother. Ju Ju continuously exerted a great influence on her. His lovely characteristic has lightened up the house and helped her get through the difficult time. This was a gift that my sister left her, as a continuation of her love and companionship ...
豬豬離去的當天，亦是姐姐逝去兩週年了，牠的另一旅程，便是返回天家繼續陪伴姐姐，牠在人世間的使命完了。
Ju Ju left on the same day as my sister died two years ago. His new journey was to return to my sister as his mission on earth was over.
豬豬，感謝你這生給我們一家的陪伴，因為你，我們看到愛！謝謝你的到來！謝謝你的愛！
Ju Ju, Your appearance shows us light and because of you, we see love! Thank you for coming to our life and accompanying us! Thank you for your love!
那天晚上，我向上帝祈禱，上帝告訴我：
That night I prayed to God and God told me:
豬豬現在很好，牠被你姐姐接走，這是上天的安排，也是你姐姐的禮物，她們現在在天堂很開心，因為愛，所以她們從未分離。
Ju Ju is very good now, you sister has picked him up. This is the arrangement of God, also the gift from your sister. They are living happily in heaven now. Because of love, they have never been separated.
大家也不用再為分離而傷心，因為這是一個祝福，帶著愛的別離，是人世間最大的祝福，可是世人總是認為死亡是一種結束，但你們要明白，所有事情都是因為死亡才能重新，所以不必糾纏在傷痛中，牠正在活得比前快樂，因為透過這次旅程，牠完成了自己的任務。
Please do not feel sad about Ju Ju's leaving, in fact it is a blessing. He is departing with your love, which is the greatest blessing he could ever receive. People always think that death is the end of the journey, but in fact it is a beginning. You have to understand that all things come to an end in order to reborn, so do not dwell in pain, you should outlive from the former joy. Because of this journey, Ju Ju has completed his mission.
其實每個人也是這樣，透過人間的旅程來完成自己的任務，你們可在豬豬身上看見牠的使命，也要在自己身上看見自己的使命，那麼離開時便不會有遺憾了。
This applies to everyone too. We lived our lives through a journey to carry out our missions. You can see the mission of Ju Ju and from it you should understand your own. You should live your life with no regrets.
豬豬是神賜給你們的小天使，牠已做了牠所要做的，完成了便返來天家。每個靈魂也有不同的旅程，一個完了便到下一個，直至圓滿為止。
Ju Ju is a little angel from God, he has completed his mission and returned to God. Each soul has a different journey, then to the next one, until it comes to completion.
你要好好珍惜現在的一切，不要浪費時間，去把這旅程行得更豐盛圓滿。這是你來的目的，我會帶著你行，記得去做你喜歡的事情，這便是對的路。只要能感動自己的事，便能感動別人，這個你記著，那你便不會迷失。
You should cherish the present and do not waste any time and put in all your effort to complete your journey. This is the purpose of you being here. Remember to do things you most enjoy, follow your instinct and this will be the right path. Things which could get your sympathy will touch other's heart too, remember this, and you will not get lost.
去告訴人類神是愛他們的，去使他們明白他們亦即是我，去開啟大家的靈性，就像你一樣，這樣小動物便不會再受苦難了，這個不是你所祈求的嗎？
Go and tell people that God loves you all. Teach them to open up their hearts, so that animals will no longer suffer.
