Karen I write this with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes. The only 2 things that helped me with my loss, I spent time with non dog freinds doing things I hadn't been able to do with a dog ( trip) and I was getting married so Tim and I spent more time togeather Maybe you and your brother could take a little trip even just overnight some where. Or some small day trips.
We here know the pain of the loss please don't leave us though we pull to geather at these times to help each other. Cuz we all care about you.
