Sad

I don’t mean to make you sad so if you want to you can just skip this post. We have lost our baby, our best friend. I am suffering physically from the loss.  The stress during these last few weeks has caused an outbreak of lichen plantus in my mouth. It’s an autoimmune disease that I have suffered with for quite a few years but was in remission. It causes raw sores and redness to appear in my cheeks which are painful. I called the dentist this morning and got antibiotics, a numbing mouthwash and a treatment for it. That should work. The brave face that I have been putting on the outside cracked. We will be all right but we will take the time we need to grieve. This post is a tribute to Sadie…so much more than just a dog. (that isn’t Sadie but it looks like her).
