    Hi Toni,
    My kids have been keeping me busy which helps me keep my mind off Gizmo. I have also found some counseling. Hopefully this will help me get some closure. I’m thinking more on the not side. But as I keep saying to people that Gizmo is,was the only being that knew me inside and out. Thought I tell what is going on. I still am so distraught over her death. I still think she wasn’t supposed to die. Thank you Toni for EVERYTHING! You and this site has helped me in many ways.

    • I am so glad you are with our caring community. We understand. You can tell us anything and we will support you. Counseling can help and I hope you let us know how that is going. You might find the book “Griffin’s Heart” a useful tool to help move through your healing. My Paw’d Cast interview with the author, Reagan J. Pasternak, will be released soon and can be listened to by clicking the microphone icon on the upper right side of this page. The book is in our Shop. Were your children close to Gizmo? Are they handling it okay? Let us know how you are doing, Jill. Hugs
      • Jill, we JUST published my Paw’d Cast with Reagan – “Griffin’s Heart” – if you want to listen to that. I think her book may be a helpful tool for you. Toni
          • How much is it?
              • Only $27.99. Free shipping if you order from our website. Please know, and I think you do, I’m not trying to promote it, but I do think it provides a useful process to help heal. It is a very private place to be very honest about your feelings, including anger or guilt, and is heartfully written. Let me know if you get one and how it helps you. My cat is 17 and still with us, but I have found going through the book in anticipation of her passing (she has a number of health challenges) is helping me prepare for our eventual goodbye. Here is another HUG for you.
