Posted by Michelle on 12/12/2005, 8:40 pm, in reply to "Re: RECENT DEATH" Your messages really spoke to me because today I went through a very similar experience with my beautiful ragdoll cat, Mushroom. She had liver problems, and was at least 11 or 12, but possibly older(we're not sure, because she was a stray...). I, too, held her in my arms and spoke to her as she passed...I'll never forget the look in her eyes -- so weary and soft...She was such a big part of my life for the last seven and a half years and I'm just so sad that I'll never see her or hold her again. I know it was the best thing to stop her suffering, but I just want her back, I want her here...I can't stop crying...I also feel guilty, anxious that I could have done more to prevent her from getting sick...It hurts so much and I don't know what to do with all the pain that I'm feeling...I know people have suggested support groups on this site but, to be honest, I don't know how I'm going to make it to work tomorrow, so any advice on dealing with this in the short-term would be much appreciated...
