My 38 yo son, who is a long-haul truck driver, has a dog whom he loves more than life itself. They are inseparable. My son has never been married, has no kids, no cousins and is not close to his only sibling. He also has very few friends due to life on the road. The dog is his everything.
Today he learned that dog has doggie ALS and has very little time left. My son is rightfully devastated.
I don’t know what to do, how to “make it better,” what to say. He’s all alone in his grief.
