Is life really supposed to be fair???
We lost our Macy Gray this week. She passed in Joseph’s arms, it was tragic.
I was at the Georgia State Capitol and I asked Joseph to take Macy to vet, she had not been acting normal lately. He went to the Vet we usually go to but they were closed- the entire office is on a work trip, a company cruise. She was slipping away as he was driving. He called me screaming and crying, I could barely make out what he was saying. There’s an emergency vet across the street from our regular vet, he drove there but it was too late.
I drove from Atlanta straight to Jasper (Vet) and loved on Joseph, I was scheduled to speak at 6 in Jonesboro, Ga. Which was 2 hours away. We headed back down 575 headed to Jonesboro and of course we were stuck behind a roofing truck whose mascot is an english bulldog puppy. Roof Roof. That was tough. Joe looked out the window and cried.
After my meeting, we went to dinner to try and take his mind off of everything, note to self- check calendar of events next time, apparently it was $1. shots, karoke & hooka night on Tara Blvd. They got his order wrong and gave him a big hug and a free slice of cheesecake.
Macy was a rescue.
She was a free FB post and so so so loved. I don’t know how long you’re not supposed to cry after losing a dog. She was much more than just a dog. She was family.
They told us she was born on 9/11 and like Victoria she smelled her food before she ate it. I’ve never seen a dog do that, they just eat. Macy went everywhere with us. The lady at the bank loved her. The Walgreens pharmacist alway come to the window to bark at her. She’s been to the beach, a baseball stadium in Alabama.
Last week, I was laughing because she had a doggie bagel from Einstein’s then she went to CFA and got a bone in the drive thru. Then she got a pup cup from Starbucks- all in one day.
I don’t know how to make the pain go away.
My heart is hurting. The house is too quiet.
We need another rescue. STAT.
Facebook is funny, I made a post on my personal page about Macy passing and FB sent me a “Congrats your content is gaining traction blah blah blah” Clearly, I am not here for content. That’s not us. At all.
However this page, I received a notification that it’s not being recommended because of the content. Go figure. So if you’re not seeing updates from us. Maybe it’s FB shadow banning because of the “content”
If you know of an English Bulldog that needs to be loved and spoiled, please send them our way. English Bulldog because that breed works well for us, low energy, prone to getting sick, fluffly, loves to eat. That’s us.
If Macy ever bit you, I am sorry, She bit everyone. Jayden showed me the scar on his finger to remember her by. She was an equal opportunity biter.
We all miss her.
Shout out to: Big Sis Kristen, She dropped everything and ran over to the vet, to be with Joe. Also Chip H & The Hearts of Harmony, they left us a sweet card with a Paw print on wood, Of course Joseph took it to his room. We go back to vet this week to pick up her ashes, Joseph wanted to keep them in his room.
