I Woke Up With A Headache Today
I Miss How You'd Scare It Away
With The Grin On Your Chin
And My Furry Aspirin
We'd Soon Be About Our Day
Have you ever woken up not feeling all that great? I have. Did you pets make it better? For me, I had two furry aspirins that would make me feel better just being around. It's amazing what those little balls of stress relief can do for us in our day-to-day lives. So let's take just a moment today to remember how they made our lives better.
Join us if you'd like to talk and share or just listen to the stories about your furry nurses and the needed stress relief they used to provide and that we miss so much.
If you can't, share or write about a memory of them with someone you love.

Did your pets bring you comfort when you were sick or recovering? If so, how? Let's spend a few minutes thinking about a specific situation, when let's write and thank them for always being there for us.
