“There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.”
Our house felt so empty once the kids went to bed last night. I know we made the right decision, but that doesn’t make the void any easier. I firmly believe that Ovie was completely aware of what was happening yesterday afternoon. When he came to the living room, he didn’t acknowledge a stranger in the home which is very unlike him. Instead, he found a spot on the floor and allowed you to sit next to him without a flinch. I am grateful that my kids and our two dogs were welcomed into the process. Stella and Rex are definitely acting more morose as I had expected. But the ability for our whole family to receive the closure needed to begin the stages of grief was such a blessing. I know you are likely told this every day, but the work you do is so unique and so important. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the empathy, time, and attention you gave to us yesterday. We are still very saddened by the loss of our sweet boy but know we sent him off in a dignified way.
Just five days shy of Scout's 10th birthday, we received the most devastating news — Scout had a tumor on her heart that had spread to her lungs. The vet gave her days to live. Days. It was an absolute shock. She was her normal corgi spunk self, full of health and life, and then the weekend hit, symptoms arose, and a diagnosis quickly followed. We are so thankful that Lap of Love was one of the services recommended to us by our vet. The team, from the very first conversation, were phenomenal, caring, and actually wanted to know about Scout. About her life, her beautiful precious life, and how they could help us through this unthinkable time. That first interaction to discuss scheduling next steps for our girl, was so kind, patient, and caring. We appreciated that everything was handled over the phone, and when Dr. Rachel Moe came to our home, Scout was her number one priority. Scout was treated with such love and respect. She was not nervous or afraid. Dr. Rachel walked us through each step. Nothing was rushed. The last moments we had with Scout were heartbreakingly beautiful. She was happy. Every step of the way. Dr. Rachel didn't linger after, but her part in making sure Scout never suffered was a true gift from God. We called one other clinic before reaching out to Lap of Love, and instantly felt the care and support that is needed during such a fragile time. Unfortunately, that was not our impression from the other service. We felt that everyone at Lap of Love truly cared about Scout and her life. I hope it is many years from now, but we will definitely use this service again when the time comes and recommend to other pet owners as well. Thank you for treating our family with dignity and respect.
