We got the extremely unexpected delivery of a bouquet of flowers from our vet, in memory of Gracie. Five pink roses, and some greenery. It's such an out of the ordinary thing; I'm really touched and a bit speechless about it. I'm sure it's the rare client who gets that, so I feel honored, and proud of Gracie.
Really that's an emotion I've been coming to: we gave her a good life, she was a good girl and loved us very much, and I'm really proud that all these people knew her and cared about her too. We did right by her, and it's over now, but it feels like an accomplishment to be proud of, loving her like we did.
Dr. Anderson, our primary vet and owner of the practice, was on vacation when Gracie died. The bouquet is signed from the Jet City Family; the timing suggests that it was ordered once Dr. Anderson got back from her vacation.
It's such a special vet practice, and we got so lucky picking them after we moved here, just because they were the closest to our apartment. It'll be hard if we ever have to switch.
