Essence

You can hope and you can offer hope. You can take the financial burden out of the equation. But you don't get to control the end results.
Oh, how I wish I could have.

Tonight there's a 25 year old gal whose heart is hurting beyond hurting. And I can't change any of that.
She took her kitty in to the vet at 8:30 this morning and left her in their care to have surgery. At 9:34 they rang her to let her know the kitty had collapsed on the table when they were about to do the x-rays. As fast as she tried to get there, she didn't make it in time and she wasn't able to cuddle the kitty one more time.

Oh how I wish I could have been in charge of the results.

She loved that kitty well.
And that kitty well knew she was loved.

life just doesn't seem fair does it? I try to believe that it all happens for a reason .. but sometimes that reason ... really sucks... or you don't even know what it is ... ever .. but it has to happen to fit into the whole scheme of things .. right? ... I think we need to share the snoopy band aids :)
