~~~24 Years Have Gone By, Still The Memories Remain~~~

As of new years day 2020, it has been 24 years since Tribble's abrupt passing... and the beginnings of development for Pet Loss Grief Support - Lightning-Strike.com.

Many things have happened in my life since then, both good and not so good, but i am happy to be alive. The original site in 1996, which was a total mess because i had to code everything by hand, is long gone but the memory of Tribble is not forgotten. On January 1st, i will open up his can of cremains for a friendly hello and to refresh his food and catnip. right now he is probably basking in his twilight years, living once again in a warm house with a fireplace and loving every minute of it.

To everyone who is here right now during the holidays, realize one thing: it does get better with time. the memories now sad, cold and tear-filled will warm to those of fondness and memories of happier times. Give yourselves one of the many gifts, aside from unconditional love, that your furbabies have left behind for you... time.

What do you do when
a good friend dies?


What do you do when a good friend dies?
Do you lash out in anger and curse at the sky.
Or grasp hard denial, the means of the weak,
In an effort to kindle the comfort you seek.

What do you do when a good friend dies?
Once life's breath, so precious, gives the chest final rise.
In haste you take blame, no other at fault,
You kneel upturned earth and deem all happiness to halt.

What do you do when a good friend dies?
When with him the times, both good and bad, lie.
Do you cast aside the past,
for memories hurt much too much,
Or struggle and fight for that last lingering touch.

What do you do when a good friend dies?
When all of the tears have all but been cried.
No matter how much, no matter how hard you try.
The only thing to do is say farewell.
Goodbye.

i still you tribby dog, please come back home one day!
