Dear Sara:
Charley was my male cat and weighed around 17 pounds. He died first when I was back in New York on the IDPF trip. I do not have my Blackberry or calendar anymore as they took it. I think this was around May 23 He was around 14 years old.
Squeeky was my "baby" at about 7 years old and was a little female ofaround 14 pounds. She came down with the same symptoms about a week after Charley died and was put out of her misery in early June after, again, the vets could do nothing.
You have to remember that we have tried not to forget them but to erase the constant horror we were experiencing. The flashbacks were all-consuming. As such, I have tried to purposely forget the dying and remember them as alive.
Yes, I used to always use "Dear All" but when I signed back on I was not sure how I would be received so I chose to say "Hello All".
Bob
