Mourning My void is dying and I’m sad

Post image

Just that. She’s fifteen, has cancer, I’ve had her for thirteen years and I’m devastated. I wanted to share her with everyone, as she’s brought me so much joy and I’m going to miss her terribly. I started palliative care this week, and she just took a turn for the worse. Her name is Mortimer. It’s cheesy, but she’s my best friend.

It’s a few year old, but that’s my favorite picture of her.

It is never cheesy. We have been blessed with these sweet, sinless creatures. They teach us so much and give us so much joy and comfort. I’m so grateful that we get to live with them. Sending you hugs ❤️
