My sympathies to you and your wife in your terribe loss of a beloved "child". We too, lost our 8.5 year old rottweiler a couple of years ago to Lupus (of all things). She could predict when my hubby was about to have a CH and would also go to her headache hideaway. We now have a Chesapeak Bay Retriever who is starting to understand (he is only 2) that Dad hurts a lot but needs his comfort. He tries to stay by his side through each attack if Dad will let him.
Try to get another dog if you can, DJ. It may seem selfish but it WILL help you with your grieving and in return, you will be giving a lovely soul a good home. Animals give us the unconditional love we all need and only ask that you love them back. Sometimes stroking that big old furry head can actually calm my hubby down in an attack and help him to get things in perspective.
