About danielle
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.
Simple…and so profound.💖🤗
Thank you. I am REALLY trying so hard, at this oncoming one year anniversary of letting Gerry go with wings. I still miss him terribly and after my 2 week vacation, have had it all rush back to me. I miss my boy so badly, and won’t rescue another until I stop feeling this way, I can never replace him, but I need to be alright with “whatever” comes with a new addition to my family, not to mention my heart. I never realized how deep my love for him was. It’s tearing my heart into pieces, and I can’t make it stop. I love reading Mary Oliver’s poems, and read one at Gerald’s ceremony. She is entirely in touch with nature, and what connects us to the natural world. “Dog Songs” is a collection of poems she’s written about her canine companions that I highly recommend. Thank you for being in touch.
Beautiful words to live by.

..if only I could commit myself to the “letting go” portion, I might just survive this world.
