I’ve written about this before but today, after seeing Bridget at dinner time, I felt very emotional.
It always a problem saying goodbye when I feel it’s time to leave. I try to get her to accept that I’m either off to the toilet or must go to do some shopping. Sometimes as she walks away I manage to leave without her seeing me go.
. But today she just sat there looking at me with a look that was full off sadness that I’m leaving. I go back and try again but it’s the same, that look that suggests being abandoned. Imagine a dog being left, not understanding why it’s being left, and looking at you with those eyes imploring you to return. For me it’s heartbreaking. I don’t know how to get round this one.
Sometimes I just wish I could put her coat on and put her in the car and bring her home. No more goodbyes.
