"Yes. Make dinner. Respond to that email, run that errand, hug that child, sweep that floor, pay that bill and the list of things that require our attention in the midst of major upheaval goes on and on. It is equal parts unfathomable and also just- of course." Thank you <3
Love senior pups. I have two and am definitely in the extended decline with my 17 yr old girlie. She has always adored me but watching her withdraw and enjoy less is heartbreaking. We adjust and love them the best we can. It’s like purpose or calling for some of us.
Aww, Lindsay, thank you for sharing. Otis was the best boy. It’s so hard to say goodbye. I took your class as my sweet pup Willow was in her last few months and it was so meaningful to me. Lots of love friend.
Aw man, I'm so sorry about your Otis. It's just the absolute hardest thing. I had to say goodbye my almost 21 year old cat a little over a year ago because of an untreatable tumor. She moved all over the country with me and I'll miss her forever. I have a goofus of a 1-year old cat now, and she's a dang delight to have around. Cats and dogs are just the best. Many ear skritchies to your Fern and his zero teeth!
Awww I’m so glad you were able to bring in a new buddy- and I’m so sorry for your loss. We go through so much with them and they’re so unconditionally loving and themselves with us. It’s remarkable. They are the best!!
