The portions of this episode regarding Gordon were so touching. I have an old dog, too, and I know her time is drawing closer each day. I'll be a bigger mess than Mike. Gordon has been one of my most favorite recurring guest stars. I was glad to see Secretary McCord make Mike stop trying to fix it and just sit and be with Gordon. We are their entire world and when it's time to confront something difficult we should put our own devastation aside to be there so they know that they aren't alone and have been so loved. It's literally the least we can do. (I also love how an episode based on true scientific fact hurts the feelings of so many and then they come here to advertise their ignorance to anyone who reads these.)
