This is so sad, makes me want to cry

When I adopted my first girl, I have to admit, I was sooo ignorant. I knew absolutely nothing about anything, though I had grown up with dogs all my life, my mom took care of everything, so I didn't have to.
When I adopted Nini, I thought it would all be fun, I wasn't counting on being a 'caregiver' per say either, but in the mist of my ignorance, I knew she wasn't a doll and there would be some 'caregiving' somewhere because she was a living, breathing and feeling being.
I have had my challenges being a newbie Yorkie mom, but my love for my fur-kids have seen me through all of it. And the thought of someone quitting on a baby just because the baby is sick, is upsetting.
You said you're older and I wonder...what were you thinking when you adopted this poor angel? Were you ONLY thinking about YOU?
It's so sad that people see these innocent dogs as toys who shouldn't have the slightest problem because then they don't fit in their perfect little world. How selfish of you
