10 ways my life has changed with a puppy // Living alone with a rare disease
In this video, I share a few (10? 11?) ways my life with a rare disease has changed with a puppy to care for. Jasper is A LOT of work, but also the most loving, cuddly pup. I filmed this a few months ago (January) and life is certainly different now, but I thought this was still fun to share.
Also not happy with the quality....but thought I'd share anyway.
I’m definitely not following my regular posting schedule these days, but will continue to create content when I feel up to it!
xx
