With the heaviest of hearts, I can’t believe I’m writing this, but I lost my best friend last night. 💔
Woody’s infection took hold so quickly, and he went into acute liver failure. I was faced with the most difficult and heartbreaking decision of my life, and I had to let my beautiful boy go.
I am completely broken. The pain I’m feeling is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. He was my absolute best friend, my soul dog, and I loved him more than words could ever explain. I tried everything I could to save him. I feel so angry and robbed that we only had seven years together. It just wasn’t enough. We had so much more life left to live together.
He has left the biggest hole in my heart, and I honestly don’t know how to navigate a world without him in it. He has completely shattered my heart.
Woody had the purest heart and gave the best cuddles in the world. He had a way of making everything feel better, even on my darkest days. I am so grateful that I was there to hold him, cuddle him and tell him how much I loved him one last time as he passed. I hope he felt just how loved he was until his very last breath.
Thank you, my beautiful boy, for showing me what true, unconditional love feels like. Thank you for getting me through some of the darkest times in my life, for being my comfort, my safe place and my best friend. You gave me more love than you will ever know, and my life will never be the same without you.
I would give anything for one more cuddle, one more kiss, one more moment with you. Seven years was never going to be long enough, and I will forever feel robbed of the time we should have had together.
I don’t know how to say goodbye to you, Woody. A part of my heart will always belong to you, and I will carry you with me for the rest of my life.
I really was so lucky to be your mum. You were, and always will be, my soul dog. No matter how much time passes, nothing will ever change how deeply I love you.
I love you forever, my beautiful boy. Until we meet again. 🕊️🤍
Forever my best friend. Forever my soul dog. Forever my Woody.
Love you forever and always, my boy. X###x
