| She's gone This weekend I took my baby Mika to her mother in Atlanta. It did my heart good to see my daughter living well, and near her new job. I know this is what mothers were made for, but I am now in an empty nest, and my Mika is gone. Amber says she is adjusting well. It's a town house set up with no back yard, but there is a dog park for the entire community. I had to get rid of Mika's bed this morning, I can't stand to look at it without her rolling over for her belly rub. SHe's not running up to greet me or tossing her favorite toy around. I don't even want to go home this evening

| I really would love to, but I travel a lot, and I just don't know. Right now, I just don't feel there is a "substitute" for Mika, I love her so much. You know how it is, you get to know their little ways and their personality and it seems no other yorkie will do.

| i think itll just take time for you to get use to being without her. of course, since its all very new you're hurt and sad. I think time will heal your pain. and then maybe if you have room in your life you can get another, not as a replacement but as a companion

| We took care of our daughter's 2 (and our 2) for 6 mths until they were ready to go to live with her in Hawaii (quarantine restrictions) ...the day we had to send them there I cried all the way to the airport and all the way back...At least I know they are with my daughter and poor girls, living in Hawaii, I should be so lucky...The nice thing for you to know, is that Mika is with family and you will get updates and photos and much more...It just takes time...

| I really don't relish the idea of starting out with another one and going through all the baby stuff. WHen Mika turned 1, it just seemed like she "got it" about everything, and was then such a delight to be around.

| The house seems so empty and lifeless. There's no one to let out or play with or cuddle with. I called my daughter in ATL about 6 times yesterday to ask "what is Mika doing?" I even had her put the phone to her ear so I could talk to her. I have gone off the deep end. I begged daughter to let me have her back and she said NO!!!!
