Is grief truly proof of love? This felt like the philosophical question to ask amid the sobbing and chest-clenching. Losing my best friend and shadow after fourteen years so quickly was not on my Wednesday agenda. And yet I had to make the choice to spare him the coming pain. This book is my journey through the first thirty days of grieving Henry. Henry was my beautiful Chihuahua, with more spunk and personality than most humans I know. I have experienced loss, yet this crushed me. This collection honors him. It helps me cry, smile, grieve, laugh, and, most importantly, always remember him and what he brought to my life. I hope this touches the hearts of those who embrace it and brings them whatever they need during this life of grief and joy.
