15. Don't forget to take care of yourself too.

You are already suffering a great loss. Chelsea Handler is going through the same thing. However, her baby was a 18 and a medium sized dog so don't lose hope! Spike (my almost 15 yr old "best friend" and baby) and I send belly rubs and warm, soft kisses.

*Oh, I forgot. Take him off the kitchen counter. When my mom was taking care of Spike after she had surgery a long time ago and I was at work she had Spike on the kitchen table and thought Spike was knocked out but she wasn't completely and got up and fell to the floor. She was OK since when they are relaxed they usually don't get hurt as much...like drunk drivers.

Best hopes & wishes for Hank and You. irisblue Jan 2018 #1
