12. Don't be too hard on yourself....there's no way you could have known...
...it wasn't deliberate on your part. Take care of you. You *are* worth it and so are the little ones you have inside. My Mom locked our dog in a hot car (unknowingly - he liked to jump in there - loved to go for car rides!). She went to get something out of the car - he jumped in. She shut the door. Hours later she wondered where Boo-Boo was. He was still in the car. This was in 98-degree heat. She found him, dead with a blue tongue in the car. She was horrified. She still feels really bad about it - BUT - she didn't do it deliberately. She couldn't have known. We had to keep reminding her of that. It happens. It just does. The pups just do stuff they ought not to and catch their owners unaware and it costs them their little sweet lives. It's no one's fault, really.
