A Growing Connection with Bailey
David’s bond with Bailey deepened as the weeks went by. The dog seemed to understand the gravity of the situation, and in his own way, he offered support. David began taking Bailey on longer walks, using the time to clear his mind and gather his thoughts. The walks became a sanctuary for him, a place where he could process his emotions without the need to be strong for Katie. And when they returned home, Bailey would curl up next to Katie, completing their little circle of care.

The Struggle to Stay Strong
David struggled to stay strong, especially on the days when Katie was too tired to even smile. He put on a brave face, but inside, he was unraveling. The weight of the situation was overwhelming, and there were times when he felt like he couldn’t go on. But then he’d see Katie, fighting so hard to stay positive, and he knew he had to keep going for her sake. He couldn’t let her see how scared he was. He had to be her rock, even if it meant hiding his own fears.
