Yes, the stages of loss are not very different from the loss of a
loved one-denial, guilt, bargaining, depression. Thank you for your
wishes.

I hope that your feelings of hurt are subsiding. Some people write
stories of their friends or poems. I made up a memorial slide show of
Boots over the years. I've included a pic.

Thanks again
Camaro

Yesterday, I put down my loving female Akita. She was so gentle with
my grandkids and my elderly mother with her swishy little tail and her
soft kisses.
I put togther a memorial slide show of her through the years but it
doesn't less my hurt. She captured my heart and she has taken a big
piece of it with her.
Boots I miss you!

I'm new here,but I feel your pain my friend.It's takes a lot of guts and
character to send your best friend into forever sleep.And as I'm sure that
you know it's one of the best ways to show how much you love her.It may not
lessen your pain,but it sure did hers.Do you have any pics of Boots that you
can post?
I had to do the same for my 20 year old kitty Sara last year around this
time.It nearly killed me.Then 2 weeks ago this Friday Molly,my little dog of
8 1/2 years died.To me it's just as bad as losing a family member.I've
included a pic of Molly.I miss her so much that I feel like I'm losing my
mind.

Take Care,
BrianD
