5. I feel your pain

Mon Jul 1, 2019, 05:53 PM

Jul 2019

I lost my beloved Stormy to "sudden" heart disease and heart cancer. I spent almost 10 thousand dollars to save her, but it was just too much. I was so distraught I couldn't even go into the room when they put her to sleep. I don't think I've cried harder about anything else my whole life. Sometimes, there is just nothing you can do. You gave him love and affection and a good life. He was grateful for every moment he got to be with you. Illness and disease suck. It's not your fault. Don't second guess yourself, just reflect on all the shared love and companionship.
