When I suffered a great loss one of the things the experience revealed was that time was my friend, because every second that passed removed me a little from the pain. What choice did I have but allow time to help me in this way? Grieve, weep, and know that there's a light at the end of the tunnel. And, if you will, there's coming a time when you'll see your beloved again.

Thoughts and prayers, morgan.

Morgan, do you have a copy of The Rainbow Bridge?

Yes-it's lovely.

She was my everything-I considered her my child. I've suffered many deaths and losses in my life. This seems the hardest of all because I was responsible for her care. I don't have human children and she was the world to me. My whole world.
I don't believe that you could have done anything more for her. I also had a dog who had bladder cancer. There was nothing, including surgical intervention, that could be done.

I get this. I'm the same way with my 'babies'. They're both getting up in years now. It's going to be so tough when their time comes. But, I know I have given them both the best life they could have. You need to know that you did the same. I think they know that, deep inside their little brains, they know. I spent alot of money on saving one of my cats, enough to buy a used car, and ever since then she looks at me with, dare I say, gratitude for saving her life. She didn't look at me like that before either. They just know.

Yes, you were responsible for her care, but you're not God. Don't beat yourself up for something you could do nothing about, luv. You gave your friend love and cared for her. It's what you could do. It's enough.

I understand that (somewhat) intellectually. Being "responsible for her care" also means I took care of her throughout her life, like I would a child. Thank you for the reassurance and kindness. I greatly appreciate it.

I will read to you for as long as you can stand my voice, luv. If that means forever then so be it. :kiss:
I always make jokes about KRF's collection-but in all sincerity, I would read to you too, my friend. Any time. KRF's voice is probably more soothing, though.
You guys are great friends.

You are a Thinker!

You are a very rational, patient and curious person. You love learning new things, challenge yourself and have a good one-on-one conversation with an inspiring and knowledgeable person.
When it comes to emotions, you don’t like to get too much carried away. You like to think about how you feel and react accordingly.
Career wise, you are more attracted to a position in a university or a research center, where you could really challenge your mind.

I have to pick up her ashes tomorrow. They've been ready since yesterday, but I haven't been able to face it. I feel like both of us died all over again.
oh Honey, you will find the strength. There is a part of her you will always keep close. As Spidey said remember her and hold her good memories close. You have a very special spot in your heart.
