Walking Together, One Step at a Time — Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo

Categories:  >

Meet Moka-kun, thirteen years young. 

Moka-kun can't quite stand on his own anymore, but his will to rise is as strong as ever. Whenever he's awake, he wriggles about as if to say, "Help me up!" 

 
 

 
 

One, two, one, two — we did our exercises together. 

Crouching low to keep him company turned out to be quite the workout for me too. (Maybe this is my chance to shed a few pounds?) 

 
 

 
 

I kept the Totoro walking tune looping in my head, but I was the one who gave up first😂 

A little rest along the way matters, too. 

 
 

 
 

Some days he sleeps soundly and deep, 

and other days, sleep just won't come for Moka-kun💤 

 
 

 
 

That, too, is part of caring for a beloved senior companion. 

I'm so grateful to share in each precious day of Moka-kun's life🙏 

 
 

 
 

May you enjoy plenty of delicious meals, 

walk all you like on strong little legs, 

and may your days be filled with sweet, peaceful sleep✨
