Columnist Writes About Losing a Pet
It was hard to read through Michael Casten’s latest column without getting teary-eyed. Losing a pet is never easy— especially when they’re still so young.
Reading his column, you could really feel the love his family had for their beloved Vizsla. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and they truly are a gift. While the dogs I’ve had all had extremely different personalities, one commonality always held true: their ability to give unconditional love never failed to brighten even my darkest of days.
I’m sure having pets on top of caring for a medically fragile child wasn’t easy on my parents, but I’m so glad they made it work. Does (did) your family have pets? How have they made an impact, if at all, when it comes to life with SMA?
