You've been an amazing heart-friend and support throughout the whole ordeal, Rae, but your attention during the long, torturous, overnight hours was especially meaningful for me. One of the only times I've been able to feel full-on gratitude for the massive time difference between us!
This came at the most opportune time. My step-dog, Tucker, is fighting for his life. Your story is so touching. To my heart. We give our pets our love. Our devotion. And our prayers when they need them. I am so happy for your Nutmeg and for you. Blessings.
Oh, Tucker (we had a cat of the same name) -- I'm so sorry for your struggle, and I know it's hard for your human parents, too. My thoughts are with you all, and my sincere empathy.
We had to put him to sleep. He was a grand, old dog. Thought he was a Rottweiler, but only about 33 pounds! I love him so. Thank you, Elizabeth. He had a great life.
A woeful story but an uplifting one; you know we have been there with dogs of our own. And why do these things always happen on the weekend? Nutmet~such a beauty! Thinking of you all and your feline love!!
Couldn't help but think of you and your canine companions as we went through all of this, Carolyn. Especially sweet Jam... :( Thanks for sharing the fur-baby love and for your thoughts here, too.
Crying tears of joy that Nutmeg made it! I've been through similar situations with our beloved pets (but could never describe it the way you have....thank you!). So wonderful when we are given more time with them. Hugs.
It is a miracle I haven't been able to fully absorb, and my heart keeps drifting back to the stories of so many, like your Clai, who didn't get that second chance. Life and death remain so mysterious. Hugs, Susanne.
Thanks for the wonderful good News. So happy for you.
Our pet chicken,( Goldie) was not so fortunate. The veterinarian put her on antibiotics and she stayed in the house with us , bu yesterday she died. We are suffering and needed your news.
Oh, Goldie! I'm so sorry. You know I keep a giant chunk of my heart reserved for chickens. Hugs to you both, and when/if you feel ready, perhaps a (re)read of this will also bring comfort. https://elizabethbeggins.substack.com/p/no-trouble. Take care, friends.
Knowing full well that this is not the way most stories of this kind end, it's fair to say my happiness is pretty unbridled right now. Geez! Thank you, Diana for your kind comment.
Oh Elizabeth what a telling of such a heartfelt story. I’m leaking tears and feeling grateful for the reminder of how the miracles are amongst the sadness if we just notice them. So appreciate your gifts. Nutmeg and you pulled through… happiness💛
Soulmate = heartache=such love...
Such love, for sure. I know you know.
Oh, dear Nutmeg- your beautiful story of love, loyalty, and tenacity has me weeping this morning.
I still have a bit of a backlog of emotion pouring forth. There has been no shortage of weeping. Thanks, Roe. Hugs.
Yay, Nutmeg! So glad you made it! Another spring day for you to enjoy.
Yes, indeed! And, she appears to be truly enjoying life again right now. Appreciate the comment, Suzanne.
My sweet and beautiful baby girl. Mom, we must’ve exhaled that same breath of relief. So thankful she’s ok and what a beautiful tribute to her journey

He sounds like he had quite the personality; I know you will miss him terribly. Big hugs. So sorry for the heartache.

Ah, such love : )
My dear felines are 15....
It runs deep, right? I hope your kitties continue on for a long time yet. Thanks for reading and commenting, Catherine.

Oh Elizabeth how you touch our hearts with your incredible writings! So happy Nutmeg is still with you and Jim!❤️

You are kind. Thank you. Tucker was the best. Kevin and Sasha and I will always miss and love Tucker.

If we just notice them. Yes, that. And, I appreciate how you are among those in my life to serve as a reminder for that all the time! Thanks, Izzi.
