We Will Not Walk Away
By Gabby Jimenez

When someone has received a terminal diagnosis,
and they’ve been told they have less time
what this translates most to them, is that
they have been moved to the front of the line

A line no one wants to stand in
a line that can often bring fear
a line that changes everything for them
and lets them know that death is near

So many things are taken from them
most importantly, their autonomy and choice
leaving them dependent on everyone and everything
no longer having a voice

So, if given an opportunity to say goodbye to pain,
to end their suffering, and to feel free again
they need to know we support them
that we will not walk away
they need to know that whatever they choose
we are here to stay.

The Healing Power of Pet Therapy for Seniors 💛
Nothing brightens a day quite like the gentle nuzzle of a furry friend. Pet therapy offers seniors comfort, companionship, and moments of pure joy. Interacting with animals can help reduce stress, ease feelings of loneliness, lower blood pressure, and even spark conversation and laughter.

Caring for a family member is demanding, and that stress can spill over into your marriage or close relationships. But with balance, communication, and shared support, it can bring you even closer.

These friendly, bonded boys have had their world turned upside down. Their special person has died, and none of his family or friends have the space to adopt them all together, the way he wanted them to stay. Ben (9 y.o. Boxer), Joey (9 y.o. Boston Terrier), and Benny (6 y.o. Boston Terrier) are loving and healthy. The youngest likes his zoomies sometimes, but in general they are a cuddly trio of couch hounds. If you or someone you know would be interested in meeting them and becoming their new favorite person, please message WVH here, email pets@wvh.org, or call 503.588.3600. Salem Dogs

Squeaker is a beautiful 14 y.o. Ragdoll princess, who will need a new home since her human mom is approaching her end of life with hospice care. She is an affectionate companion who loves to snuggle on a lap, and be pampered and brushed daily. She has always lived indoors and is healthy and up-to-date on vaccines and veterinary care. Might you, or someone you know, welcome this sweetheart into your life?
