Thank you Patrick. That was amazing. I wish I was a poet. Roary. Thank you too. I can't imagine what it took for you to write down your feelings like that. Many people have lost their pets to accidents ... dogs specifically. It must be a horror. One that I hope I never, ever have to face. You and so many, have had to wade through conflicting emotions that must be so difficult to reconcile. I'm glad that you talked to the puppies and pet them. It's a tiny step towards healing I suppose. A tiny one. But it's an attempt. Wolfy http://wolfysluv.jacksnet.com [Posted in FML issue 4890]
