My little Snow Pea passed away.

Ally,

This news brings much sorrow to my heart. I knew Sammi very well. I watched over her and Doc when you and Chris were away on vacation so many years ago. Sammi was very much the puppy at heart.

Nothing could be harder than losing a loved one, be it human or animal. Being there at the last moment of life, watching the last glimmer of light fade from a loved pets eyes tears at the heart and soul. It's been nearly a year and a half since I lost Lady, but I still feel the sting, and I still see the look on her face as she slowly slipped away from me and my brother as we kept vigil in her last moments. The one consolation about being there was seeing the love in her eyes before she drifted off to her final sleep.

My heart weeps for you, Ally. I wish for you comfort in this time of loss, and pray that the warmth you felt from Sammi's life with you never fades.

Bloody hell.

I am sitting here with tears threatening to spill, waving my hands in front of my eyes to stop the deluge. My sweet brat, Mellie, is laying in the foyer within eyeshot, and I promise to give her a hug and a scoobie snack as soon as I finish here. Really and truly.

You are sooo sweet, Ally- and your little Snowpea knew it. That's why she hung on so long- she loved you, and you did so right by her. I'm just so sorry. Not so much for her, as I know she's okay, but for you. It hurts, and yeah, time will help, but for now it hurts.

((((((Very big hugs))))))

My heart goes out to you. I rejoice that you gave her the best possible life and you were likewise blessed with a wonderful beloved friend to remember and carry with you always.
