Last night I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't get back to sleep.....too hot here right now. I started thinking about Mishi and then Sherman and then all the current RB pets....especially my Speckles. Before I knew it, I was crying like a baby. Sometimes I wonder just how much pain can the heart endure. How can a heart that breaks in two become whole again??

When you are feeling that much hurt, it's hard to believe that you will every feel happy again.....but you will and it will take time. Grab ahold of those happy memories and never let go....the same way Sherman will never let go of you. As stated in past posts, he will be near you at all times. Gini said it right.....it will be so subtle that you will almost miss it.

HM: here I am at work and LES has overcome me at the moment. That's beautiful and I look forward to seeing the pictures this evening.

Lizbud and others: I just love reading those poems. Thanks you posting them.

Glacier: since I don't have my own office anymore, I'll have to wait to read that link. Don't want the staff here to see me crying.

Big {{{hugs}}} to you Cyber and to all the Pet Talk community as we grieve together.
