I Put a Puppy-Sized Band-Aid On My Family’s Grief & I Am Not Sorry At All ([link removed])

“I was writing my brother-in-law's obituary when I got to the part about family members who'd preceded him in death. Steve, my brother-in-law, had died unexpectedly the week before, and our family was reeling,” writes Amber Guetebier today. “There was nothing I could do to shield my son from the reality of death. I couldn't banish the aching grief that was now a part of our family, the invisible guest who sat at the table where Steve should have been.”

What she could do, though, was bring home a puppy. It’s a beautiful piece, but fair warning — it’s gonna make you want a dog.
