Pain and Happiness

This last week has been a doozy. My parents came in last Tuesday here to the UK to visit us and it's good to have them here. But last Wednesday I eneded up having to put my beloved dog Belle to sleep. She had been sick for about a month. The vets were stumped so they did some exploratory surgery. When they opened her up she was full of tumors and there was no hope of recover. I told the vet not to wake her up. I hated doing it but I didn't want her to suffer. She hadn't eaten in 3 days and was not doing well. Life sucks and I miss Belle.
