We could all say that @MimPimMim there is never enough time, and life sometimes intervenes, but the time he spent with you would always have been treasured time for him, it doesn`t matter what you were doing, or if you were distracted sometimes, or busy with your DD or house, its the just being there which is important. Sometimes the moments spent, each doing your own thing in just quiet shared companionship are the most special.
When you were in hospital with your DD he would not have doubted your love for him, there are times that we cannot be there for them, as much as we want to, and it is the hardest thing.
Im a trauma surgeon, and over the decades I have seen a lot of people pass, Ive also had my own dogs since childhood and fostered for several decades, and one thing I have come to firmly believe is that love does not die. When everything else fades away, when all else is lost, love endures. Your boy may have passed, but your love for him and his for you will not end.
When I was training, I had a mentor who told me the same, and that even when we cannot save people, the love they have and their families have for them goes with them into whatever is next, or it becomes frozen in time and captured forever, depending on what you believe. It is the same for our furry family members, your boy will not feel alone even now, he will carry your love with him forever x.
