We say goodbye to our dog Kane, from the late-night call and the hardest decision through to the memories that still make us laugh. We also talk honestly about telling Josh, coping with the shock, and why bringing Kane home in ashes feels both brutal and comforting.

• the 2am voicemail and why we know it’s serious
• Kane’s seizures and the decision to put him down
• waking Josh early to talk and grieve together
• favourite Kane memories, including the “tennis ball” photo
• Kane as a protective walking buddy at Lilydale Lake
• the 27 kilo lap dog who ignores personal space
• getting nipped twice and what we learn about dog safety
• re-training, reactivity, and how age changes a dog
• ashes, lead, paw print, and building a small tribute
• hinting at the next chapter of the trilogy

I walk through the two phone calls no parent wants, as Josh dislocates his knee at school, starts recovering, then does it again after his surgery gets cancelled. It’s a messy mix of ambulances, scans, crutches, co-parenting decisions, and the sick feeling of watching your kid hurt while you try to stay useful.
• racing to the school while Josh screams in pain
• paramedics, the green whistle, and getting him home safely
• urgent care, X-ray, crutches, and the push for an MRI
• specialist advice, keyhole surgery plans, and early signs of improvement
• the surgery cancellation after MRI reassessment and the relief that follows
• the second dislocation at school and the trip to Box Hill Hospital
• the dunk tank jog decision and my unfiltered reaction
• keeping the next specialist appointment and preparing for changed plans
So stay tuned and we'll find out what happens next, and let's see if Josh can keep his knee in the fucking joint for the next bunch of weeks.
