$800 Billion Wasted: What Is The TRUE Cost Of Healthcare? (Health Documentary)
CW: Pet Loss / Euthanasia
Tomorrow is the hardest day: saying goodbye to my sweet tuxedo cat She just turned 18 (88 in human years)!
She is the 5th rescue cat I've adopted and helped transition with dignity. Wednesday is her final peaceful appointment.
Her health fell fast: cancer and liver issues... Using the H5M2 Quality of Life Scale, her comfort score dropped below 35. Her struggle is too great!
She is weak and falls down when standing so I bring her food, water, and do daily towel-baths. Her purrs are constant, but her body is tired. It is time for peace!
I find comfort in the BTS song Spring Day. If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever. Thank you, my friend, for 18 years of love! Until we meet again.
