Today I was at my mother's. She had just turned 93. She was in bad shape and slept all the time. I was caming back a bit sad and distracted when a young couple sat down next to me with this sweet dog. Even a strange dog can comfort you in a bad moment.
I have been interested in photography all my life and remember quite well developing my first black and white films myself... My favorite subjects are...
So sorry that you were so sad in how your elderly mother was when you visited , but amazing how a sweet little animal can sooth your mind and soul ! Great shot - he seems to be in clover!! fav
Very cute and thankful that this little dog was able to lift your spirits!
I know how you feel I’m dealing with the same thing with my elderly mother!
It’s very disturbing when they’re not doing well !
I’m glad that this cute, silly little face brought a bit of joy. I understand it’s hard to see a parent (or anyone) in this condition. I used to drive the back way home from visiting my mother especially to see a sparkling creek along the side of the road.
I believe that your Mum may have known you were there and been comforted just by your presence. And this crazy little face must have been a nice distraction for you on your way home.
A delightful capture! I'm glad it brought you a some relief. It's very sad when our parents decline. In my case, I actually felt unanchored- suspended in shock and sadness. It's such a hard time. Hang in, Hannah! Thinking of you! xx
I'm so sorry to hear about your mother's failing health. It is so hard to see the ones we love suffer. I'm glad this little fellow brought a smile to your face- some happiness amidst life's lower points.
