Prayer for Pete
This was my prayer for Pete’s first birthday.
Now that he is eight years old and blind from Glaucoma, I pray again.
St. Francis, please protect my heart dog.
Please ease the confusion blindness has brought to his life.
This dog is a product of irresponsible backyard breeders.
He does not deserve the pain from Glaucoma and his bad hips.
Please guide me in making the right decisions for him.
Please guide the vets who care for him.
Protect and love him all of his days, as I promise to do.
When the time comes for him to leave, please give me strength.
In the meantime, a little mercy, if it is not too much to ask.
His heart is good, even if his eyes and hips are not.
His soul is pure and he does not deserve to suffer.
I pray this with all my heart and my soul.
Pete’s Mom, who rescues dogs and birds and who would take their pain in a heartbeat, if it meant they would not suffer.
