So this last week or so has been quite the emotional roller-coaster. Lots of good things happened, which I want to talk about, but first...
As many of you who follow me and/or
akiko on other social media already know, we lost our oldest cat, Isis, last Thursday. She was suddenly diagnosed with an advanced brain tumor, and in the end we had to opt for euthanasia to avoid the prospect of fatal seizures. She was 15.
Definitely one of the hardest things I've ever done. It was the first time I've even lost a pet more than four inches long, much less had to help make end-of-life decisions. Knowing it's the best decision doesn't make it easier to let go.
Bestest evil tortie ever.
