My dog died-have not been around

On Sunday, my dog Harvard, of 12 years, passed away from heart failure.  I mourn.  He was my constant companion and the only man who never left me (tho I am sure he would have loved to at times).  I helped dig his burial hole and have severly hurt my left hip-had to do it tho I could not help put the dirt on him.  I thought loosing my home was bad-I now re-cant that statement and cannot fathom loosing a human family member.  It has been a very, very sad and trying year for me.  I did not realize how busy he kept me!  And, when i did not feel good he was always there to warm my heart.  Gotta go...will be back soon-I hope. Going to have facet nerve ablation today.  Ran outta meds and can barely walk right now.  Gotta love "pain Management" Eh?
