cw: mention of possible dog passing awayI'm scared that I won't even have six months with my dog... It never gets easier.

they are here for a good time. Not a long time. But that never makes it any easier. I had a dog get suddenly diagnosed with cancer a couple of years back. They gave us some meds to buy us some time before we said goodbye. It brought us a month. In some respects it was fucking horrific. Absolutely bloody horrific. And in some respects, it was a gift from god himself and I'll be forever thankful for it.
