Leaving Vance at Sevenoaks

Aug 21, 2013, 08:09 PM

It would be a bittersweet moment for any guide dog owner: heading off for an exciting weekend in Europe, but first having to part company with one's most trusted friend in the world. So it was just now as I bade farewell to Vance, and turned around to head back into London with my long cane. It isn't that Vance won't be well looked after; he adores my mum and will even be seeing my sister Jessica and her boyfriend. Rather, it is a strange sub conscious feeling that there's a part of me missing, and that whatever treats lie in store for me during four nights in France, I won't be wholly complete again until I'm back with him. #fb #Bordeaux13 #GuideDog #holiday #cane
