Default Cathie, you have done much to

comfort me in my own pet losses in the past. I truly wish I could do the same. I know there is one giant HOLE in your heart, and also a lot of 'quiet' around the house now? But you will KNOW that that creature's spirit is around for sure, I DO KNOW that my gone 'guys' often patrol my windowsill as they had in years past... And at times, I feel them nestleing down by my feet on the blankets... I am pet free now, but wish I had LOTS of Critters who are Lovers around to trip over now! I am sorely tempted daily.

It is a hard thing to deal with. But at the same time, you were wise to 'deal' with certain aspects now. There is, as with humans, some compelling need to preserve life. At times, that quality of life is no longer there. YOU DID THE KINDEST THING you could given the cirumstances. That all does NOT make it any easier, nor will that sore heal fast or soon.

I went thru one of those 'guilty times'? Actually more than one...when the vets said I 'WOULD KNOW". Well, the creatures were more like me? They defied their situations and did NOT GIVE UP Even when they could not truly function well any more. It is a hurting thing to decide. But, a necessary one. I am crying as I write this, because I just know what pain you have and are going thru. Keep close to your heart, that what you have done is...tritely seemingly put, but apt: 'is best'. It still HURTS!

Your Yorkie love is beyond pain now, and happy. That is what we all strive for ourselves? It was ultimately a wise choice and best for your yorkie and for YOU! My heart goes out to you now, if at any time you need to whine personally, PM me. I've got THAT pet pain T-Shirt in the Extra Large Size!

Hugs always 's and Hope? Golly knows we all need it! - j
