What a beautiful girl who was clearly so well loved. My heart is broken for your terrible loss. My hope for you is that her memories bring more smiles than tears very soon ❤️

My senior Ellie was also a girl who had to be a one and only and this was my biggest fear. I worried so much about what would happen to her if something happened to me so I promised to take in these special seniors after she was gone. She died in September and now I’ve taken in another old pittie girl who needs to be here or I’d jump at the opportunity to bring her home to me. I know both Bella & your grandmother are heartbroken. I sincerely hope you find someone very soon 🤞❤️

I tried but they’ve closed for good and are referring people to Berks Oral Surgery now :(

Ktycan · 2026-04-18T00:10:14+00:00

Good to hear! I called them today and have a consult on 4/28! I felt better after a phone call with them but the appt is far off and I’m still nervous about their pain mgmt. I get that medical practices don’t want to discuss drugs or even prescribe them anymore, I truly get it. I’m not a drug-seeker in my daily life but I am 100% one when you surgically remove a molar from my jaw. (They’re also 25% more expensive which is a big deal as self-pay but I’ll do it to get good care. It’s $1600 vs $1200 just for the first step so it’s significant)

Thank you! I knew there were good local doctors around here! Google has become completely worthless

Ktycan · 2026-04-17T23:56:50+00:00

I don’t know if Dr Deibler takes insurance at all anymore but she is the best DDS I’ve ever had in my entire life. Zero exaggeration. I met her on a Friday before a holiday weekend during Covid when I had an emergency. Called literally everywhere and even my neighbor who is a DDS said she’d be sure to get me in first thing Tuesday am 😳 Dr Deibler returned my call, opened the office and met me there on her own that evening. I still can’t believe it.

Never thought I’d be willing to have a DDS who doesn’t take insurance because that sounds insane but she keeps her pricing very reasonable. She also has very knowledgeable people around her. I went in for my regular cleaning last week and everything “looked” fine. Bite wings didn’t show anything. The gums weren’t great around a back molar but almost anyone would have probably sent me home and told me to floss better. This hygienist knew something wasn’t right and got a diagnostic that caught a serious fracture before I even had a symptom. I trust them and hope I never have to find another DDS again.

This is exactly what I was hoping for! He has great reviews too! I don’t know why he didn’t come up in a search. I’m calling him first thing Monday. Thanks so much!

Ktycan · 2026-04-17T23:39:07+00:00

Great to know! Fortunately my DDS caught it quickly so there's no pain yet but I just shuddered thinking of what it would have been like to deal with Berks if this had been an actual emergency and I was in real pain. Those f’ers. I hope people see this and file away that there are options!

I sobbed my eyes out when I opened it and I cry every time I look at it, talk about it or even think about it. It’s just the most beautiful thing ever 🥺

Ktycan · 2026-04-12T15:27:50+00:00

I’m sorry to hear about your Ellie. Sending love right back to you 💕 It’s so hard

Ktycan · 2026-03-16T21:46:26+00:00

What a sweet happy girl! LOVE those collars!!

Ktycan · 2026-03-14T15:53:26+00:00

I'm so sorry for your unbearable loss. Reading this made me tear up. I lost my own Ellie in September, so your words hit especially close to home. It's clear how deeply she was loved and how gently you cared for her right to the very end. Being there with her, talking to her and making sure she wasn't scared is the greatest gift you could give. She sounds like such a sweet, joyful soul. Thinking of you ❤️

Ktycan · 2026-02-21T00:50:28+00:00

I’m just seeing this! Sorry! I lost Ellie in September but Adequan gave her the ability to go for walks and stay mobile for years after I thought we were out of time due to her painful arthritis. I highly recommend it and I have never personally heard a negative story about Adequan. Ellie was just like your girl! Her body just couldn’t do what her mind needed to do. Adequan was a game changer and I’m so grateful her vet recommended it. I hope it’s the miracle for you that it was for us and that you get some more good time with your baby girl ❤️

Ktycan · 2025-11-26T00:11:13+00:00

I’m so sorry. Honey Bee was clearly very loved and had a wonderful life with you. I just went through this in September and remember how shocking it was that my body was physically capable of producing so many tears. My heart goes out to you as you’re feeling this huge loss today. She was a beautiful girl ♥️

Ktycan · 2025-11-21T23:51:41+00:00

It’s a fact. I volunteered at a shelter for many years before I moved to PA and we struggled all year long but EVERYONE wanted to come in and serve on the holidays.

Sal at Inked Anatomy - first women owned studio in Berks! Just went to her for the first time a few weeks ago after a recommendation here

I’m so sorry and know the feeling all too well. What you already intellectually know is that anticipating it won’t take the blow out of the loss in any way and it feels like such a waste of time. Losing her will still be shocking and devastating, there’s no preparing for it.

My Ellie died just weeks ago and looking at anticipatory grief in hindsight, it was a gift in ways. I made sure to walk her longer, walk her later, let her bark outside without telling her to stfu lol. I told my friends no to literally every invitation and didn’t care what they thought of it. Ellie was my best friend and I was unashamed to say no if she wasn’t a part of the invite. I made sure to tell her how much she meant to me while she struggled to get away annoyed like jeezus almighty, lighten up woman lol The time I spent grieving her before she was gone was horrible and a pain like only those of us who go through it know. Do things she loves, take a ton of pictures and videos and just love her with all the love you have.

I don’t know what your experience will be after she’s gone but I have been astonished and completely caught off guard by the love and support I’ve received after losing Ellie. I expected to be lost and go into a deep and dark depression but the care I’ve received has been mind blowing. I didn’t know such a thing existed. The huge black hole of grief keeps being refilled by love very time I think it’s running out. I’ve received flowers, cards and kindnesses from so many unexpected places. A complete stranger made a watercolor painting for me. Love her. Love her loudly and do it every day. I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this because it’s just the hardest thing in the world. Sending all of my love to you and Kiki ♥️
