读后续写:阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
A few weeks before Thanksgiving one year, my husband and I decided to invite a guest over for the holiday. I called a senior center and they suggested Ilse. She was a stubborn 78- year-old lady, who favored sequined（亮片的）T-shirts.
On Thanksgiving, within minute of arriving, Ilse welcomed the glass of wine my husband offered with a wide smile. By the end of the evening, we felt as if we were old friends. The more time I spent with Ilse, the more she became like a surrogate （替代的）grandma. So when her only son Ralph died, I realized she was too upset to be left alone and helped her hire a caregiver. For me, she was like a family and I was the only one left in her tribe.
Each time I stopped by her apartment, Ilse seemed more disconnected than the time before. Late one afternoon, when I called her, I was unable to understand what she was saying. I drove her to the emergency room, where the doctor confirmed she had suffered a mild stroke. During the next few days, I dropped by her apartment, but she was no longer the energetic, stubborn Ilse I knew. At the end of the week, I received an early-morning phone call from her caregiver. " Please come over now," the woman said, her voice matter-of- fact. "She's passed away. ” When I arrived, I saw Ilse lying on her bed, motionless, her eyes closed. I sat on the edge of the bed, too shocked to cry.

In 2016, nearly 57 percent of American households owned a pet, according to the American Vets （兽医）Medical Association, but it's safe to say that 100 percent of them wish their dog or cat to live longer. In fact, advances in veterinary medicine have made it easier than ever to lengthen your pet's life. However, there are so many care options available that finding the ones that are worthwhile for your pet can be time-consuming. 1.
Watch Their Weight
About 60 percent of cats and 56 percent of dogs are over-weight or obese. 2. For example, overweight increases the risk of conditions like diabetes （糖尿病）,some cancers, and certain breathing problems. And being overweight shortened dogs’ life by up to 2.5 years compared with their ideal-weight peers.
Visit the Vet
3. " Because pets age more quickly than humans, their problems may worsen fast. ” says Pete Lands, director of emergency at Saint Francis Veterinary Center in Swedesboro, New Jersey. So keep up on routine treatments.
4.
Pets need daily workouts to stay healthy, so a formal workout plan is a good idea. Aim for between 30 minutes and two hours of daily activity, such as walking or running. Athletic breeds will require more exercise, while smaller dogs such as bulldogs can benefit from a short walk around the neighborhood. And believe it or not, some devices can track your pet's steps, heart rate, and other indicators.
Brush Their Teeth
According to Banfield Pet Hospital, 68 percent of cats and 76 percent of dogs have dental disease. 5. To avoid that, brush your pet's teeth every day. You should also get your pet's teeth professionally cleaned by your vet at least once a year.
A. Make an Exercise Plan.
B. That can lead to big trouble.
C. Accompany your pets every day.
D. This guide is a good place to start.
E. And it may be linked to the development of heart and kidney disease.
F. With the right care, you can improve the quality and quantity of life for your pets.
G. As with humans, early exams can spot problems soon enough for successful treatment.
