In the past two weeks since Honey’s diagnosis, I’ve been astonished and touched by the response I’ve received from friends, family, the Buffer team and the Buffer community.
Every tweet, email, note, gift and kind word has resonated so deeply.
I can’t thank you all enough. 
There are moments when I forget the reality – when I forget that I won’t have my baby for another 6-10 years like I’d planned on. But I guess that’s the thing with our plans — they don’t always happen like we expect. When reality comes crashing back to me, I hold fast to my dogs, my husband and the love and support coming in from so many places.
There’s a reason we’re social by nature. We need each other. We need that reassurance during tough times. We need that reminder that we’re not going through tough times alone.
So hold onto your loved ones and be there for your friends the way you’d want them there for you in a crisis.
We’re stronger together.

Nicole, excellent perspective. I imagine it’s hard to come to the realization but you’re right, community makes it easier. I missed the original post you shared the news on Honey so I went back and read it. My prayers are with ya’ll. Dogs play a huge part in our families and I know right now we miss our beagle, Lucy, who is staying with friends while we are in a transitional period.
Cherish the time you have together with Honey.
