so, today's the day

Gunner went downhill really fast yesterday and I didn't expect her to make it through the night, but she did. I'll make a vet appointment as soon as they open.

I can't believe how heavy my heart is.

Well, what to say. This morning seems like a hundred years away but I didn't want to type about it until I was sure I had a few uninterrupted minutes to type and cry as I saw fit.

This is how I handled things. Richard and Jess were there, and were very supportive and very upset, but I want this entry to be my perceptions. Self centered? Perhaps, but I want to remember what I felt.

( So, here it is. It's long, and a bit sad, so I'm doing my very first cut. )

This week has been more horrible than I ever imagined it could be, and all over a dog.

It's amazing to me that only two weeks ago I was saying that I have experienced the best week of my life. I am awed that I have experienced the best and the worst, all in the same month.
