With Scott Grandy sharing her story today is my way of making sure her little life continues to bless others — especially the pets who are here with us now and counting on us to keep them safe.
💙 A Tribute to Our Sweet Lucy (From Kimberly & Scott Grandy) — And a Heartfelt Reminder About Pet Insurance
Last Monday morning, our precious girl Lucy crossed over the rainbow bridge.
For more than a year we had been under a veterinarian’s care, doing everything we could as her seizures became more frequent and more aggressive. The longest stretch we had without one was five months… but starting Labor Day weekend, we couldn’t even get to five days. We tried every medication and every combination the doctors believed could help — but once those seizures took hold, nothing could get her truly stable again.
If you’ve ever walked a sick pet through something like this, you know the heartbreak. You know the sleepless nights. You know the way you hold on to hope even when your heart is breaking. Lucy was family — and letting her go was one of the hardest things we’ve ever done.
And I want to share one part of her story that means everything to us:
Jack was with her every step of the way.
He’s the one who picked Lucy at the shelter.
He taught her how to be a beagle dog.
He was her best friend, her protector, and her constant companion.
And when it was time for her to leave us… he was right beside her.
Pets mourn too. And Jack’s heart is hurting just like ours.
I’m sharing Lucy’s story today not only to honor her beautiful little life, but also to gently encourage every pet owner out there:
👉 Please don’t wait until your pet is sick to think about pet insurance.
When our fur babies are young, healthy, and full of energy, it feels like there’s all the time in the world. But once symptoms begin — especially with conditions like seizures — most insurance carriers won’t cover it as a new diagnosis.
We were fortunate to be able to give Lucy every available option, but I speak from the deepest place of experience now: having pet insurance early can make all the difference when your pet needs advanced care, neurological testing, emergency visits, or long-term medication.
🐾 If you’re a pet parent, here’s how I can help:
I can walk you through affordable pet insurance options that fit your budget and give you peace of mind.
No pressure — just guidance from someone who has lived through the emotional and financial weight of a very sick pet. You deserve support, and your pet deserves protection.
Lucy gave us so much joy.
So much companionship.
So many funny, sweet, beagle moments that we will treasure forever.
Sharing her story today is my way of making sure her little life continues to bless others — especially the pets who are here with us now and counting on us to keep them safe.
Give your fur babies an extra hug tonight.
And if you need help understanding your pet insurance options, I’m here whenever you’re ready.
In loving memory of Lucy 🐾💙
Forever our girl.
