Thank you for sharing your experiences so openly. This year has been very difficult so far and I am not yet able to take positives from it. It started in early January when my best friend, my dog Holly, was diagnosed with terminal osteosarcoma. Within a few days, I heard my aunt had passed suddenly from cancer when we all thought she was doing well. Within another 3 weeks, my grandma, who I was very close to, contracted and died from covid-19. Then a few months later in late May, I finally had to say goodbye to Holly. The worst day of my life. 5 months on and the pain is no less, yet perhaps easier to bear. I know the grief will never leave me. I love the idea of turning this love into a positive lesson, I just need to figure out what that lesson is. A friend said to me "it hurts so much because you loved her so much" and that message has helped me.
That's awful Jennifer. I'm so sorry. I can tell just by these words that you did have a deep love. That's a beautiful thing, even as it's so painfully hard.
