I am so sorry for your loss. It is one of the worst life experiences people have to endure. So many of us have gone through this, and my heart goes out to you. Time helps heal some, but you will probably still be having those days of crying many years from now. You might find some help in this thread:

It may help to talk about Channel, and if you want to share about the joys of her life, photos, etc., this is a wonderful place to do it. We'd love to hear about your special girl.
Also, some people write a "Thank You Letter" to their beloved pet, and list 10 things they were thankful for, and post in the Memorial-RIP section.
My Meika girl died in my arms a year ago at the age of 5 (due to toad poisoning) and I still well up with tears just thinking about her. I have many good memories, and I have 3 other pups I adore, but that hole in my heart is still there.... missing her always.
