> to die in my sleep. My friend asked me if I was suicidal and I said, No, I just don't want to live without Alice. There is a distinction, if slight.
* My sister had a little gray cat for 16 years and she died a few months ago. It was an incredible loss. I sent her a little gray cat that was designed as an eye pillow. My sister took that soft twin of her cat and tucked it into her bed next to her heart....she still sleeps with that stuffed cat....recently they went to the coast together. It has been an amazing process. I send her a work book on the death or loss of an animal. It's amazing how much these little creatures live in our hearts and minds.I hope your pet comes back but if not maybe you could find a way to work through the mourning....
Your animal would not want you to follow....
death is always way too final.Last week a friend died of a massive heart attack....honestly I thought she would be around for a long time. It was sudden with no warning. We are all stunned. The family is in shock.
It's never easy to let someone you love go no matter if they are human or animal.
Our love does go on.
