Last week was one of the hardest in my life. Bijou, one of my own, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday. Though she was nearly 18, you are never ready to say goodbye.
On Wednesday, one of my long time customers furkids, frankly someone that I consider closer to me than family, passed away VERY unexpectedly while I was grooming her (due to a previously known heart condition......not that that makes it any easier). I feel like my heart has been ripped out of my body.
On Thursday, I had (hopefully) my last treatment/infusion for a while; I will know for sure in a couple of weeks when we do bloodwork again and see if the new meds are 'sticking'......but I feel that they are.
Then the phone call no one wants to get comes in.......from my sister........Please keep the prayers coming for my nephew......Zach, just 19 years old, was in an accident on his motorcycle. He has been in ICU/critical condition since but by the grace of God he is improving and is sooooo very lucky. He has a long road ahead of him, but it could of been HORRIBLY worse. It is amazing how life and what is truly important can change in the blink of an eye.....literally.
