It’s a beautiful sunny day and the dogs and I are spending the morning enjoying the breeze outside. Dalilah kept her kennel clean overnight, and is proving herself to be quite the trooper. Despite having to drag her bum left leg around, she wags, climb stairs and plays Without a care.  

She is an inspiration. 

We’re both a little  broken 

you and me

Though your wounds 

Are much more clear for us to see 

 you carry on, 

you climb the stair 

Accept your burden without care

Your long Tail wags so constantly

Reminds me of who I hope to be

you lick and kiss me on my face

A capacity for love that I embrace.

We’re both a little broken 

you and I

Though My burden 

can be harder to espy

My cancer hides, 

Then rears it’s head

And sends me groaning back to bed 

We’re both a little broken 

Yes it’s true 

But I will strive to be like you. 

Plow through the pain 

With all our might 

We’ll wag together through this fight. 

The sun has set on a lovely day. Brenden brought Abby over and we spent a lot of time giggling together today. All it took was her Gamma  saying “Ruff-Ruff Ruff” get her giggling.
