| Autumn's Colors 2007-08-02 ch 1,  | abuseWhat a rich story. I've had that experience, letting an old friend go... Reading the story gives me something to look forward to. :) |
| Bailey Bayard 2007-03-01 ch 1, anon. | abuseI'm so sorry, Mina. Let me know if I can do anything. It made me cry. Amazing story, I love it. |
| The Inkslinger 2007-03-01 ch 1, | abuseOh Mina, you've made me cry. I know exactly how you feel. I should probably send you an email, but maybe this is okay instead. My baby died November 16 2006, and it was the single most wretched experience of my life thus far. (Her name was Sasha, she was a yellow retriever mutt and she was only 9 years old). She had cancer as well- I wonder if it wasn't the same type. It was so fast; the morning before we took her to the vet, I thought she would last until my sister came home for christmas, but that night she kept throwing up and heaving and it was so awful-- her stomach was swollen. I have two other dogs, and have had another, before her, but she was *my* baby and *my* best friend and I feel so awful at losing her that I can't bear the thouht of adopting another dog, or to have one take *her* place. And the thought of going through that again is just... it doesn't seem worth it. She was perfect, and when I hold her little stuffed toy (she always used to carry stuffed animals around) it still makes me cry. I want her back; I don't want a new dog. I can hardly stand to walk the other dogs without her. But I guess that's the trouble with pets-- you grow so attached, and even though you know they'll never last as long as you, time passes so fast. It doesn't really seem fair. I'm so sorry, Mina. I don't knw what to say-- there's really nothing *to* say, but my email's always waiting if you like. This piece was beautiful, and I hope it isn't the end, I really do. *love* Inky |
