I lost my best friend this week. I still haven’t found the words or figured out how to navigate any of this, and the last two months have been excruciating.
This coming week marks a year since I got back from my mom, who selflessly cared for him as her own while I settled in LA and figured out work so I didn’t have to travel and could have him here with me.
I could’ve never imagined being to grateful for his surgery, and saying goodbye to conventional work environments as we got to spend so much quality time together this year - probably for the first time this much since college.
I’m so grateful to the people in my life who showed up for me over the last two months, who sat with us at home so I didn’t have to leave him, who checked in on us, and whose helped even when I didn’t have the ability or foresight to asked what I needed.
Sherlock was an incredible dog who lived an incredible life, and traveled all over the country - he was at my side through the most exciting moments, and the lowest ones.
I love you forever, Chukkabear. 🤍
