Ian, I'm truly sorry you two are going through this pain again. We've all been there and know all the phases of the awful grief of losing your beloved dog. It's such an awful pain and you never really get over losing them but you just little by little come to accept the fact that they are gone and somehow adjust to it better over time. The pain and loss are so painful that for a while, you cannot believe how utterly lost and sad you feel and are certain life can never be good again. But you will - I know now you don't accept that but time is the best healer of grief and we humans do adjust to the loss of our loved ones somehow. All you can do it take it hour by hour and talk about your feelings, cry and grieve, if you'd like, make some type of little memorial to remember her by and keep sharing your thoughts about her. In time, the good memories do flood out the searing, painful ones as you no doubt remember from losing little Sam. God be with you both during this awful time. I'm so sorry.
Molly is at the Rainbow Bridge with Sam now and both are well and happy with all our four-footed furry little angels.
