Friday's Hope

My dog Irish just died recently. She was only 5 years old and she was such a sweetheart. The first time we had payed a visit to the vet was when her eyes were acting up and they were swollen shut and she couldn’t see out of them. We then kept going in because she wouldn’t eat and she kept throwing up. This last time we went in was 2 days ago. They ran her blood through some tests and they all came out bad. Her red blood cell count was at 23 which is really bad and we could’ve taken her home and brought back in the morning the next day for an ultrasound to see what could be causing her to bleed out and where. We didn’t have the 290 so we also didn’t have the choice. We could’ve just taken her home and let her suffer until she died but we didn’t want her to suffer any longer. She has breast cancer and it had spread and caused her to bleed out internally. We had her euthanized around 3 pm on Monday and this was the worst feeling I have ever felt. She was my mom’s baby and she was gone. Irish was an amazing dog and an adorable sweetheart. I know she knew what was going to happen on the way there because she was really sad and she wouldn’t get out of the car and we had to drag her from room to room. Also when we would pass the door she would sit down and stare at it, waiting for someone to open it so she could go home. I miss her and so does my other dog Daisy, they were best friends and she lost her and she doesnt even know it yet… R.I.P. Irish, you were the best dog out there.

Cinderella is my hero. Yeah, ok, I probably sound like a nerd, but its true. This is the quote that keeps me going. Never stop believing and fighting for what you want and you will eventually get what you deserve. A lot of people have a hard time seeing this because there is a lot of things blocking the light at the end of their tunnel, but those people who are reading this, should try it! Don’t give up on your dreams, just because there is a road-block, big or small. Cinderella may just be some Disney princess that got everything she wanted, but these thoughts didn’t just come from a character in a “make-believe” story, they came from the person behind all of it. Therefore, these thoughts are real and true, not just words that sound enchanting.
