Today is the one year anniversary of when my sweet little child passed away. For 16 years, she gave my life a purpose and showed me so much joy and love. As I cry while typing this, the pain also reminds me of all the amazing memories that get to live with me as well. Miss you, little Sensi.
I, too, made that mistake decades past. It still hurts me to remember how I put my wants (to have her with me) above hers (to feel good) and above reality (she had late stage cancer and was dying). It helps me a little to think she helped me be a better person and make better decisions for my pets going forward.
