Thank you Megan..
My heart aches indeed...feels like I've been struck from left field. But I am grateful that I have a good support system at home and with friends..so my Mom and I have leaned on each other alot. I know it's even harder as it was her Momma and she's always been my pillar of strength so I'm having her hold on to me when she needs to. And I do with her too. It helps. Art helps alot as well. Mostly listening. And that is what helps me cope best at this time.
I am so sorry to hear about your kitty. I believe there is a kitty heavan...St. Francis will watch over your kitty. I know how big a part of our lives our pets become. We've only had Bubba for 6 mos yet I cant imagine our home without that big moose of a dog with us.

Much love to you to ...I hope days are brighter for you as well ol' friend...your pal Buggy
