Very well put, Blanca. I HATE losing pets to old age or disease. I dread the day that I have to deal with my dog Homer's time to go.A true bummer and I dont know many who have not been thru same.
I have had to let go many myself.
Throughout the yrs I have encountered only one verse that has given me comfort in times like this.
I posted it this morn on Demmym's thread .
"Farewell, Master, Yet not farewell, Where I go, ye, too, shall dwell
I am gone, before your face, A moment's time, a little space.
When ye come where I have stepped, Ye will wonder why ye wept. "
He is waiting for you now in paradise my friend...
