A Big Loss of a Little Dog

Been a hard couple of weeks. Most of it due to work. Stressful, so all I've wanted to do is just chill when I get home.
 Last week unexpectedly my dog of 14 years dies due to cancer. She showed no signs of being ill and was gone by Friday afternoon. It may sound like I am being a big baby, but I cried and cried and cried till I thought there was nothing left, then I cried some more. I didn't know she was that sick, she never acted like anything was amiss. I am doomed to wonder that if I had known, could I have saved her. I'll never know the answer, she couldn't set me down. tell me there was a problem.
 Zoe was the best dog I ever had. We had been through much. The death of my father, death of my mother, a move across country. Through all that she remained my closest companion, the rock that anchored me. It is a week today that I lost her, a rainy sad day. I miss her with all my heart and soul. Moving on has been the most a difficult thing. I still look for her when I come in the door. The mind knows what the heart won't accept.
 Her she is in the last months of her life.
 I love you little girl and will always love you.
