So beautiful. This will stay with me for a long time: “This kind of suspended moment is perfect for art, which also takes an instant and stretches it out, while marking a moment in time that never returns: the ink dries, the page is dated, the page is turned.”
My boy is in his twilight years and I’ve been struggling with it. I oscillate between savoring every second and grieving the inevitable. You sharing this process is more helpful than you know. Thank you.
PS: the painting you made for me in 2020 still hangs above my bed and reminds me that this is my “nest”
Ohhh, how hard you made me cry! I just published a piece where I ponder what’s to come, and now to read how beautifully you helped Elsa to the other side… It just fills my heart! To have had something as beautiful as Elsa (and in my case Ruuti) just makes us better people, right? Wishing you all the best and thank you again. 🧡
We lost our cat earlier this year, also adopted, also we suspect a lot older than they told us. It was a similar decline. Reading this unlocked a whole wave of grief and love I had tucked away. Unlocked it jn a good way. You loved your girl so well and I hope this was as healing to write as it was to read, thank you for sharing it with us ♥️
Just finished reading/sobbing. Thank you for sharing Elsa with us ♥️

Oh. My. Heart.
