“There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.”
My daughter wrote Dr. Martin her own testimonial and I would like to share my own. We never met her until one of the hardest days for our family. She came in our house and saw us all broken with grief, she was compassionate with Merlot as well as all of us, giving us time and showing Merlot the utmost amount of respect. After she answered my emails when I was struggling and changed our cremation from a communal to a private as I wanted my baby back home with us. She explained my " what if's" away. Thank you so much Dr. Martin.
A Graceful Farewell for Our Sweet Bailey When the time came to say goodbye to our beloved cat Bailey, our hearts were heavy with sorrow and uncertainty. But Dr. KJ from Lap of Love brought a sense of peace into our home that we didn’t know was possible. With extraordinary compassion and quiet strength, she helped Bailey transition with dignity, surrounded by the love of her family and the comfort of familiar surroundings. Dr. KJ didn’t just care for Bailey—she cared for all of us. Her presence was calming, her words gentle, and her actions filled with reverence. She took the time to speak to us, to listen, and to honor Bailey’s life in a way that felt deeply personal. Even our two surviving cats seemed to sense the tenderness in the room. There was no rush, no clinical coldness—only warmth, empathy, and grace. Dr. KJ guided us through each step with clarity and kindness, allowing us to be fully present in those final moments. Bailey passed peacefully, cradled in love, and we were left with a sense of comfort that still lingers. Lap of Love and Dr. KJ gave us a gift we’ll never forget: a goodbye that was as beautiful as the life we shared with Bailey. We are forever grateful. Greg, Tina, Lily and Finnegan
