It's been 10 months since my Sherry left me, 15 months since my Baby left me and today is the anniversary of my Champagne leaving me 5 years ago. My Brandy has been gone since '92. I still cry at least once a day. It doesn't get easier, just more depressing. Each one used to visit me until about 8 months after their passing, then I didn't get any signs anymore. I don't know why that happens. It's terrible because it's more final then. At least when I felt their presence, it wasn't so final. Now it is. Bowls, beds and outfits are still out. I can't get myself to put them away. I wish for your pain to go away, like all of ours that have lost. Even 5 years later, it hurts to think of my Champy. I know we should treasure the good times, but it's so lonely without them. There is a huge void in my life that nothing can fill. I wish you and me peace.
