Why do they have to get old?

[Leanne]

Had a walk with Mas this morning and bumped into another dog walker... first question ‘have you left the old boy at home’



Cue me trying to get out that actually he’s passed away without crying. Bless her she was mortified.

Oh I'm sorry Leanne, that must be so tough. And with everything else that's been going on, you've probably found it hard to start processing it, too. What a terrible time you've had

 

[Mabel’smummy]

@Leanne so very very sorry. I’ve just read the whole post in one so those dreaded onion ninjas have appeared. Sending you big hugs. . Run free handsome Leo. xx

 

[Leanne]

Received this from the vets yesterday. Such s lovely gesture.

He is due to come home today. We chose to have an individual cremation and to have his ashes in a scatterbox - he wouldn’t have wanted to be put in a box, he would have wanted to be free. We are going to take him to the beach and scatter his ashes in the ocean, he loved the ocean.

So true Leanne. How lovely of your vet. xxx

 

[HAH]

That’s a really thoughtful card from your vets. I’m so sorry, sending you many hugs. You have a fine plan for scattering Leo’s ashes xx

Its been a very tough time for you Leanne , a time in which you haven't been able to grieve , Mas has been your priority which is right, but it has left you unable to give yourself over to missing Leo . I hope that now Mas is well again , you will allow yourself to grieve , to cry but also think of the happy times you had with your lovely old lad . Scattering ashes at a favourite place is a wonderful thing to do xx

What a lovely gesture from your vet. I do hope you can rest a bit, although I wouldn't be surprised that now the adrenalin has subsided from the last few stressful days, you may feel sad, so do be kind to yourself and allow those tears to flow

That's a lovely card from your vet and scattering Leo's ashes in the ocean will be a fitting tribute to him too.

That was a kind thought from your vet. I'm sure you must be thinking more about Leo now that Mas is out of danger, and I hope you can remember happy times you had with him.

That's a lovely card from your vet. And also, what @kateincornwall said.

 

[Leanne]

Leo just came home. Was significantly harder than I expected. He’s in a lovely tube that has forget me nots drawn all over it.

Weird really. When I had the idea that he was ‘just’ with the vets it was easier than looking at that tiny little tube.

Life really is shockingly shit sometimes.
