Hi, it kind of goes with anything that will help you at the time sometimes. And that may not be the same thing every time, some things "wear their usefulness" as they're used but that doesn't mean they won't work for you again another time.
And you know, it sounds like your dogs may be receptive to being taught a "cuddle command" Worth a go, right??!!
And you know you can just do what you can do, I know you're trying!! Just make the most of the last of your T's support and "Goodbye" whatever.
And whatever helps you, I know that if anyone has a shot at this, then you do with the effort you've clearly put/you're clearly putting in. It might not be an easy road, but you're definitely on it!!!
And, yes, you have it in you!!!!!!!! One day at a time, every minute/hour/day counts regardless!!!
