Autopsy

Darling…

Yes my love?!

I can’t yet tell you about the dog… it’s too soon to put into words…

But I can tell you about the cat.

Okay? Sure?

Did I tell you they did an autopsy on the cat?

No. You never told me that.

Oh. Okay. Well. They did.

Did you request it?

Ummm… I can’t remember but how would they have done it if I didn’t approve it?

Okay so anyways, it was done.

It was.

And…?

Well.

With animals, you know…?

No. I don’t know. I am feeling like I’m treading on thin ice right now like… where are you going with this?

Well maybe I don’t know either.

(Sigh)

Did you do an autopsy with doggy?

(Shaking head)

Not this time…

No.

That’s okay as well, my love.

(Deep breaths)…
