Hi @fiesty76 Thanks for the kind words about Napa. Just took her to the Veterinarian for 'curbside service' for her annual rabies shot 🙂

Yes, acceptance is often hard to achieve. In my case I had a hard slap to the face with this when my wife received her brain cancer diagnosis. I had no choice but to accept the often overwhelming changes in our lives. I quickly realized it was accept or be a very miserable human being who was not fully helping my wife. I also became more aware that I was carrying the easier part of the burden, in that it was my wife who was facing her own death. This made me immediately more accepting of life's changes that I ever had been before.

Scott, I hope if I am ever in your position that I will be as gracious/giving in character as you were during your wife’s struggle. Big shoes to fill. virgo
