potentialities

Oh, honey... you've just lost a friend. Don't let anyone tell you "It was just an animal and you can get another". Nothing can replace that bond. I am so, so sorry... it's obvious how much you loved her and you gave her a wonderful life. But she's always with you--animals have souls. They absolutely do. When the time is right, you might get another but nothing can (or should) replace her. It hurts right now--a lot--but I promise you that it will get better and you'll be able to smile when you think of her.
