Hunter’s Dad
POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
Time for a story… In 2020, my brother made me promise to take care of Hunter if anything were to ever happen to him. Naive of what was to come, I said “of course” and thought nothing of that conversation until life forced me to remember no less than a year later. For the following two years, circumstance and selfishness kept us apart until about two months ago, when he finally made it to the safe and loving home he belongs to. Words cannot describe the profound impact that Hunter’s presence has had on me and my home in the short amount of time he’s been with us. But he’s ignited a light in my life that I thought would never come back on. He’s provided me with a warmth I thought to no longer be accessible. In a way, I have a living, breathing part of my brother with me always in my immediate vicinity (I live in a studio, so privacy and separation are commodities at this point) and I cannot put into words how devastating, yet comforting that has been. I was not prepared in any sense of the word for Hunter’s unanticipated arrival, or to be a Dog Dad in general, but every day I scream with blind rage that it wasn’t sooner. In these past few weeks, I’ve watched his health, and overall demeanor skyrocket upwards, and I’ve started to recognize the flying baby seal that I met 5 years ago coming home for winter break. And on this momentous 5th year anniversary of the world being gifted with Hunter, I hope my brother can smile looking down knowing that his boy is more happy, fed, and loved more than any other dog in the entire world can be. Happy Birthday Hunter Elizabeth Hudzik. You are without a doubt the single greatest thing to ever happen to me, and words can never describe how much you are truly appreciated, what you mean to me, and how much you’ve completed my life. I can promise that yours will be the single greatest life that a dog can ever hope to have so long as you’re with me. Now everybody wish the baby a Happy Birthday!!!!!! taken in I AM5 by @ryanhudzik
