Because it's that kind of month, yesterday morning the dog died in his sleep. So I went back to the parents for this funeral. We got Casey when I was in 6th grade, he was really dragging these last few months, and nearly 17 years is more than anyone could have asked. But it still sucks. At least he held on long enough not to go when we were at Aunt Rosie's, as I was sincerely worried might happen.

I feel awful for my parents.

I am sorry. You and your family have had a very difficult month, more difficult than anyone should have to endure.

like I said last night, I am sorry for the loss of Casey but happy for his good long life.

I'm sorry for your loss. I've never had a pet, but I know that many others view them as members of the family.

I'm sorry, hon.

When it rains, dude.

No kidding. I really hope we don't have anything soon. It's not easy for me, but it's really hard on my mother. There are issues with her family, and it was especially hard on her going to these funerals, all the while watching Casey and knowing he was dying too. And it's hard for me too see her hurt...

Oh. I am so sorry. I don't know what else has been happening but it sounds like you've had a yucky month.

Dave, I'm sorry. It doesn't make it any easier, I know, but I'm glad that you and your parents shared Casey's companionship for a long lifetime.

My heartfelt sympathies for you and your parents. I've lost two of my dogs in the past two years and I know how much that hurts.
