Jolly Molly struggling

Ian’s dog, Jolly Molly, had a difficult Saturday and Sunday. Monday to VCA Tri-County Animal Hospital. She hasn’t been able to stand up since Saturday afternoon. Veterinarian is kind and knowledgeable. I think , “Wouldn’t it be lovely if all creatures had a life span equal to their vital life span?” We were allowed to spend the night in the RV outside the Animal Hospital while Molly spent the night inside. This morning she tried to stand up, but couldn’t. Her spine is fused together and must be quite painful according to the Vet. Will find out more shortly. I learn more of passing on with each encounter with death. Trying to embrace the passing on as just that, no more no less. When my Mom was passing on, I fought it with all of my being. With my Dad’s passing I had spiritual guidance that assisted me so I wasn’t fighting so hard against it. Perhaps I can grow in wisdom enough to accept those things I cannot change, like passing on, with love in my heart.
