My wedding was 2 days ago. It was ok.
at the end of the reception, I took the dogs in to give them dinner and get them to bed. I poured the kibbles into their bowls, and grim didn't show up. People were coming and going, so I figured he slipped out following someone. He had been in and out all day, but it was dark. I called to Niall, thinking he was out on the deck with the boys.
I heard the car, and this awful thump, and I knew. I ran outside screaming, but I didn't see him anywhere. we walked up and down the road looking for him, calling and calling. Niall found him in the long grass in the ditch at the front of the house. The car hit his front, killing him instantly. The driver didn't stop. they didn't even slow down. He was trying to come home. if he was going on an adventure maybe it would have hit his rear and I could have taken him to the vet.I could have helped, but he was trying to be a good dog .
I can't breathe. I can't stop crying. I can't believe this happened. My sweet loving boy. My goofy spoon head dog, with the sloppy wagging tail, and his delicate husky kisses. I can't believe I let this happen to you. I can't believe you're gone. Oh Grimmy, I miss you so much. I feel like my heart has broken into tiny splinters, and every time I breathe they dig in. He was the first dog I had from a puppy. He was my baby. he was the nicest boy.
I wish I could remember something else about my wedding day.
