Hi everyone, today Gigi was cremated. She took with her a photograph of me and one of Lucy. She also took with her a little pink heart and a pink rose which was given to me by my friend Carole. Today was a beautiful sunny day so I placed a rose on the bench in the garden - her favourite place to sit. I know I have done the right thing for Gi but the pain of her not being here is just so big - I still keep thinking that I might wake up soon and it will all have been a very bad dream.

I went shopping today to buy Lulu some presents. She has some very nice new toys and has been happy to play with them. She is still fairly quiet and not eating very much, but today we shared some peanut butter on toast. That's her favourite. I love her very much.
