Lucy….

It’s been a rough couple of weeks with Lucy. She is suffering from arthritis and now urinary tract inflammation. She was Troy’s best friend, she sat with him in his chair all the time during his illness. After he passed, I would find her sitting on the floor in front of his chair. When I brought all the flowers home from the funeral I found her sitting in the midst of them. She was such a comfort to him. He was her favorite human. She turned 14 back in August and I’m just making sure she is doing ok and coping with everything. She’s been on pain meds for the arthritis because she was having trouble walking on one of her hind legs. I can now say that she is putting weight on it and doing good. I know she won’t be around forever but I’m doing what I can to keep her in my life. She was the last puppy Troy got for me, I remember going to get her. Ashley went with us, I asked Ashley if she remembers going to get her and she does. My first schnauzer Scooter, he bought for me on my birthday in 1996. Then came Sadie, and then Lucy. I’m trying to hang onto a piece of our life together, pieces keep slipping through my fingers.
