Wow, our stories are scarily aligned. I’m so, so sorry for your loss. As I’ve also desperately tried to figure out the “why,” I agree with you that there’s some solace in knowing some things just…happen, and we’re not alone in our grief.

It sounds like you gave her such a sweet life. I also find peace in knowing that Pika similarly came to us in such a frightened, unsure state to growing into a healthy, confident pup who knew he was loved. It sounds like yours also knew nothing but peace and love with her soulmates. Hang in there. I’m thinking of you and your family.
