Last goodbye

Briefly, homeless man Kevin McClain falls ill with lung cancer and is taken to hospital, thence to a hospice. His dog, Yurt, is taken to a shelter and rehomed. Close to death, Mr McClain asks to see his dog one last time. Yurt is brought to him. Two days later Mr McClain died.

There’s a damp-eyed start to the week for you.

Hat-tip to the splendid Funeral Consumers Alliance for this.
