We love them so much, and have them for such a relatively short amount of time. Bless you, Den, and bless her. All of us who have been where you are tonight are holding you close in our hearts.
She knew, she was glad you were there. I'm terribly sorry, Den. Loss of an animal companion hurts terribly, whether they choose to go on their own or not. But the memories and personality quirks are there forever. Either the Native Americans and/or the Aboriginals have a proverb of sorts that says no thing or being is forgotten until the last person who is existance that remembers them passes. And as long as we have memory that being has a place in our hearts.
I saw your post at work, while I was sneaking a quick peek at LJ, and didn't have any context to put it to... at first I thought you meant Donk, and wondered if that might have had anything to do with Bek. It wasn't until after I'd closed the browser and gone back to work that it hit me, who it might have been... and it did, hit me. Like a kick in the chest. Take care, dear Denbat. *hugs*

Geez. I'm sorry. :( It's just one of those weeks you wish you could sleep through, isn't it?

She's in a better place now. And I'm sure she couldn't have asked for a better guide to accompany her on the journey.
