Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That sounds lovely, Jilli.
I'm sorry, Steph.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Teppy, I'm so sorry. Much love to you and Tim.

Oh, Steph, I'm sorry. But despite your guilt, you did right: you knew when it was time, and you took action to prevent her being in any more pain.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jilli, that's so perfect.
Steph, being grownup hurts, and running from it sometimes (when no one else suffers for it) is perfectly reasonable behaviour.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I'm sorry, Tep. I know that you'd never have been ready to say goodbye to Chloe but you loved her and did the right thing. I loved hearing stories about her.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
We've said over and over since this past summer that we knew she didn't have a lot of time left, but still. I would never have been ready, matter when it happened.
It's always sudden. I'm sorry you lost your beloved Chloe. She was a lucky dog to have you and Tim to love and care for her.

No ceremony or funeral; she wants to be cremated, and have us sneak her ashes into the flowerbeds around the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland. No, she wasn't kidding.
That's so lovely!
Steph, I'm so sorry. It's such a hard decision to make, but I know you guys did what was best for Chloe.

I'm so sorry, Tep. You did right by her. Hugs to both of you, and Kato too.
I feel like going and draping a blanket or sweatshirt on the dog in her honor.

That's lovely. And knowing how to honor her at this time is especially lovely.
