Here I sit , a 62 yo man who's been though all kinds of crap in my life , with tears in my eyes . Not for me but for a coworker .
She had to have her 10 yo Golden Retriever put down Monday, he had battled cancer like a champ and it was finally time . He was her soulmate . We've been texting back and forth about how it went down and she did everything just right .
But still it hurts and I can't get one thing she keeps saying out of my mind . She keeps repeating "love your dog as much as you can every day of it's life 'cause you never know when it will be over" .
They were nose to nose when he took his last breath . I hope I have her strength when my day comes .
