I am a rescue mom and school teacher. Gerry came to me from Texas, after he "failed" as a hunting dog. He had NOT had an easy life. I was three years divorced, and we saved each other. Last week I learned he has osteosarcoma. Our world feels upside down...while everyone else is right side up.
My favorite day of the year was the last day of school. Gerry would get extra kisses and be told that it was now “our” time now. We went EVERYwhere together. He gave me reason to take a drive and do an errand. I miss his company.
Those words are so true, I don’t think we ever get truly “ready”. When the summer came and we opened the pool, Rosie went swimming with us all the time. She was my first dog/pool together. She did not swim in Rhode Island, I had no idea how much she loved water. My mom’s pool just had the ladder but when we moved to KY we discovered “steps” … omg so much fun. We would race for the ball that David would throw across the pool to the deep end. The faster I swam the faster she would swim. And here they come.. again.. it’s ok though, beautiful memories.
So true….a lovely sentiment…..so true💖

…it is still something without words, except that I feel hollow.
