It sounds rough taking care of all of the puppies, Mandy, Gidget, and the others.
I know what you mean about not wanting to leave them. When I go out during the day, I do not like going out at night because Max is all by himself. You really can't win, can you? You have too many and I don't have enough!
It's also not easy getting used to living alone, even for a week. Everyone says that you have a chance to relax, read, etc, and you do, but by the time you even begin to set up your own life, they're back.
My daughter used to go to her father's house for the summers for a few years when she was young. By the time I hot used to it, I had about 3 weeks of fun, and then I had to prepare myself for her homecoming again.
It's just not easy. My Grandmother used to say "You have to wiggle through each day."
I'm sorry about your friend. I'll pray for her. Sounds like she's in a really bad way.
