28. That is so sad!

I am in tears now....for you and your little one. Please take care of yourself during the terrible, awful time.

My baby is 17 and doesn't have much time so before long you may be reading a similar post from me (I doubt it though since I will be too much of a basket case to even be able to type for about 10 years).

I just lost one of my cats, Jeoffry, tonight. [View all] The Velveteen Ocelot May 2020 OP
