I watched my grandfather die last night after months of him battling ALS. I've already accepted his death years ago and I know he's at peace now so it's okay.
But the fact I can't explain to my dog that she should stop looking for him and waiting for him to walk through the door tears me up inside.
Fuck. We don't deserve dogs. It's up to you to show her all the love that your grandfather can't anymore. I'm glad you're at peace, and now you have an awesome job to do, even if it's tough
I'm sorry for your loss
