Thank you for sharing. I made a donation to the Maryland Zoo in Phoebe's name. I think it's awesome that they would bring their penguins to her and give you all some happy memories during this difficult time.

I am an old cynic with a sharp tongue. It does me good to know that somewhere in the world there is a special family who have just been blessed by a special experience. A family with real friends. Peace to you.
