Yesterday, Dec. 28, 2008, at about 2:00 pm. my late Mother's magnificent old cat, B.K., aged just short of 24 years, lost his battle against renal failure, heart disease, and time. He had been part of my life as long as my husband. My world is unrecognizable without him.

That's so sweet Dottie, thank you!

I can't get my head together. So many things need doing. The things I let go of to to care for my boy. I can't sort out what's really important and what's not. I don't know where to start picking up the pieces.

I don't know what to do without him. I don't how to be without him. And if I seem to be raving like a fool, well then that is appropriate, because at the moment I am one.

And if I have failed to acknowledge the suffering of all of you in a similar straights ( or worse )...I'm so sorry. my heart goes out to you. My mind is just not able at this moment to tally all the losses.

When they leave they take a part of us with them, I only hope that the part they took brought them a joy as great as the pain that came in to fill the void. Courage somethings have just got to be gotten through. His love is still a place for you to go to, indulge in that.
