My dogs are what has me still breathingTake a breath, dude.
Dogs are great, such pure love & joyMy dogs are what has me still breathing
Yea my oldest has been with me through A LOT of BS and she has seen a bunch of females come and go from our lifeDogs are great, such pure love & joy
Morning. My dog has often been the only thing that will get me out of bed and through the day. When my old girl had to be put down she left a huge hole in my life and I was drifting. I rescued a mutt and he’s helped to get me out of my head.My dogs are what has me still breathing
That is how I feel about my older dog, when my other one died I told myself I would never get another dog but then my current dog came into my life and has changed my lifeMorning.

Hold them close. They are a gift and should be celebrated.
My daughter is a fighter and is still holding on to life. Mostly she is sedated for the pain. Her husband and her siblings have maintained a vigilance with her for several weeks now and I feel for them as well. I hate to say that I hope she will pass, but it would be best for her, and her caregivers. It's like a fog that sits in one's brain. I can feel the depression trying to recapture me, but so far have pushed it away.I am feeling sad because my oldest daughter is suffering from metastatic cancer and has just gone into hospice. While I realize it is normal and natural to feel this way, I am fighting to keep it from pulling me down to a place I don't want to be. I have already lost one son; it's not natural to outlive your children. So, I keep doing what I regularly do, which is browse the internet and occasionally post in the Lit forum. And playing golf twice a week. Fortunately, my other children are helping her and she has a good husband and friends. This is a comfort.
I realize she will probably pass away soon and not sure how I will handle it. I know it is not about me, but I want to be brave for my children. Shit...
Hang in there, think of the great times you have had with her. Her presence was a blessing, be strong for her and for your family.My daughter is a fighter and is still holding on to life.

Thank you for your update. I understand your hope for her passing and the end of her pain. I hoped for that as well when my mom was ill.My daughter is a fighter and is still holding on to life.

When my dad was bedbound after losing a foot and suffering alzheimers, I had a similar hope. He's passed, and I miss him intensely, but I'm glad he's no longer confused & suffering. I'm sorry you both had similar experiences - I'd not wish that on anyone.Thank you for your update. I understand your hope for her passing and the end of her pain.

We’re here. Please know that and know you’re not alone in this.
Be safe out there.
Love you.
