I’m so sorry, Duncanpup. November 21st. The holidays have got to be the worst time to have to go through sorrow and pain and a deep emotional loss, not that the death of a loved one isn’t hard enough ANY time of year.

I’m so glad - even feeling somewhat honored - that you’d want to share your grief here with us. And trust your broken heart to us. And let us in, to stand with you and keep a vigil with you - even though it’s on a nameless, faceless community on the internet.

Please keep us posted on this journey that was forced upon you. MANY pairs of strong shoulders are here to listen, help, sympathize, empathize, and lift you up. Don’t forget that.

You do not mourn alone.
