Dog Days are Over – A Journey of Love, Loss, and Letting Go.
Somewhere over the ocean, the strangest thought hit me. The stumps on her back… what if they were her angel wings? I know it was just a dream. The mind is an incredible thing—finding patterns, making connections that may not even be real. But... the thought of it... was enough to break me again. I had held it together for as long as I could. But now… the floodgates opened. After years of illness, delays, and guilt, I was finally here—taking Janice to the place she had always wanted to be.

Confessions of a Physiotherapy Session
