Bereavement
Related: About this forumI'm thankful finally,
My darkness, is leaving. You guys have heard me at my worst. But you listened. Thank you. All the nights I lied in bed and LilBit was asleep and the demons raced in my brain through my grief, now I lie down and songs I need to sing, play in my head.
There is a light, along this bereaved road. None of us knows how long the road is. But,
You only grieve cuz you had a heart big enough to love.

(4,332 posts)I lost three of my most beloved cats last year... and the one I lost in March still hurts so bad I can't stand it some days. Still take in rescues, after many, many months passed by. I know for lots of people it's not the same as grieving for a human, and I understand that. Some days, I wish, though, they could understand the loss I feel.
Hang in there, Koz... I'm glad shades of light are coming back into your life. May it be ever increasing. You've had a hard row to hoe, and we're glad to be here to help where we can.
Blessings on you and LilBit.
