Losing a pet can be a profoundly unexpected and deeply challenging experience, and in this episode, I share my journey with the loss of my buddy and little dog, Mikey.
I share the emotional upheaval that accompanied his decline and eventual passing, revealing how this grief has impacted my daily life. I candidly discuss the decisions I faced regarding his end-of-life care and the comfort I found in choosing in-home euthanasia through a service called Lap of Love. This episode highlights the importance of acknowledging pet loss and the necessity of allowing ourselves to grieve in our own ways.
