I truely believe animals are a special gift given to us to enhance our lives. They give company to the lonely, they are trained to help the handicapped . Pets teach children many life lessons and witness the unconditional love, kindness,and acceptance to their human friends.

 

Well, I am very sad this morning because last evening my black labby Jessica Louise took ill while sleeping next to my bed. It was 12:30 am and my wife and I heard a noise and my wife jumped out of bed and ran around the foot of the bed to see what was wrong and I dropped my good hand down to her and said what’s wrong honey as I rubbed her head.And she looked up at my face and I knew that her nearly 14 years of life had caught up to her. She was labored in breathing, and could not stand up.

Fortunately for me my son was up writing a paper and my future son and law was over watching a movie with my daughter so they got Jessy into the car. My wife ,myself and my son went to the urgent care animal hospital in Woburn and it was confirmed that she had a stoke of some sort so we had to put her to sleep. It was heart breaking.

Like I said to the Dr. At the vet hospital She has been glued to me since she was a pup. When my wife had a cold, or my son broke his leg she stayed with them. When I became so ill with brain cancer back around 3 years ago Jessica changed and became even  more of a service dog on her own. Labs are a very smart ,very gentle breed who just love and serve.

When I was truely sick and was bed ridden after my diagnosis, my wife had to come to the bedroom to get Jessica to come out of the room to eat. She would not leave my side. So, God gave me and my entire family  a very special gift with Jessica and I am grateful to God to have had her through my darkest of days.

I will not be replacing my Jessica either it would not be fair in my current physical capacity. I used to play ball and wrestle with her all the time she was a big cuddly teddy bear.

My wife said to me at around 2:30 this morning the problem with dogs is that they don’t live long enough.

I agree 100 percent  we could have shared 100 years with our baby.

I am glad that we were with her, I am glad that we had such a good day yesterday. She ate breakfast hung out with our other old pup Jeremiah , and came to my chair where I roughed her up . I loved playing with her and she ate it up 🙂

At one point she came up to me at my docking station. She put her chin on my lap and looked up into my eyes and stared. I rubbed her ears and told her she was the prettiest girl in the house. 🙂  I used to tell her even mommy said you are. Lol

I am so glad that she was ours, and that we were hers. We took her on all of our family vacations. She was so good.

God bless my pup Jessica Louise this might sound crazy to some and I really do not care but I do believe that I will see Jessica and all my little pets that we have lost again. Love does not just die, I do not think God operates that way.

 

Pets are a responsibility, pets are a little work but pets are love, company , unconditional love and always forgive our moods. Jessy was all of the above.
