I often think that our pets are a reflection of the most innocent and loving parts of ourselves..the part that is pure, unique, hard to project every day, all the time, consistently...but if we could, what a beautiful world and how good we would feel. I helped Eleanor up (my words instead of 'putting down') in Nov last year and the day after was so mournful; a hole in my heart that I could physically feel. I think feeling this emotion is what I must do for me and her soul. As discussed, my 20s, 30s and 40s were very unemotional (I used to joke that I'd cry once a year just because but it would take a sad movie to get there). So now when I cry, I feel it is healing me somehow. Anyway, to Missy, your little girl. I'm glad you shared. Lisa

Lisa,
You use the right description about losing someone you love, whether it be human or a pet. A hole in one's heart.
