My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fourofem Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 With a name like Possum, how could I not fall in love? I feel quite sure his 66 days with you more than made up for everything he went through before. You're a saint Ducky and I'm so sorry he didn't have more time to snuggle up with you. Rest well Possum and know that one of these days, when I find the right boy, you will have a namesake and I hope he's just as handsome as you.
