Subject: Thank you
Thank you so much for all of your thoughts and prayers. I know
that I probably did the right thing for Cleo, but of course I am
filled with what ifs. Considering I am the one who scheduled her for
the surgery which in turn took her life I fell like I did wrong by
her. I just hope she knew that I was only trying to help he and
that I thought I was doing the right thing. I am also frightened
for her brother Alex now. He is so sad and doesn't want much of
anything. I am trying to get him to eat or drink something, but he
just wants to lay in her hammock or when he is not in the hammock he
seems like he is searching for her. I will let him do this for a
while, but by tonight I would really like him to at least drink
something. I am giving him lots of love and he is returning the
love. My little friend who usually bites (he is a partially deaf
Blaze Ferret) has become so sad that when I pick him up he feels
around until he can feel my heart beating then he just rubs his head
against my heart over & over. Does anyone have any suggestions for
helping him? When he sees me crying he gets more upset, but it so
hard to not cry. It was suggested that I let him see Cleo's body so
he can have closure, but I don't know what to do.
Again, thank you so much for all of your support and prayers.
Maureen & Alex
