    But (and this is in no way linked to anyone's previous comments,) we do have the new grumbling discussion, for when you just need to have a good moan about things. It's actually very therapeutic.

    Just trying to promote that discussion a bit more. 😁

    I'm so sorry for your pain Catherine. I hope you will feel able to come on here and express how you feel; I have enormous empathy for you, as will very many others.

    Fifi was by your side for so many years it will take time to grieve and mourn her, she was clearly a very much-loved family member. And you're not 'grumbling' - very different to expressing your deep sadness and grief and I hope you will feel supported on here as you so rightly deserve to be.

    Sadly, this happens to be 'how your day is going' for now and it's ok for you to express and share that here, whether it's over weeks, months or years as everyone's bereavement, and how we each experience grief, is different. This is your space as much as it is anyone else's - please remember that.

    I spoke to Blue Cross who offer bereavement support when I lost two in a week, they were an amazing source of support. I think they're open 7 days a week from 0830 to 2030 if it might help you to talk to somebody too.

    It's such early days yet but you will have days when you smile again, laugh again and, eventually, where your memories of Fifi will be recalled always with deep fondness and love for her, and your pain will lessen.

    Sending hugs to you xx

    I think we are in grave danger of becoming a very judgemental forum. With so many choices now of where to post whether you are having a good day, a bad day, a boring day the forum is becoming too compartmented.

    For example where would you post having a good and bad day? Would we need to do two posts? This thread is about How Is Your Day Going?

    Sometimes members are not in the right state of mind to be thinking where do I post something and would just post on the first thread they come to. Is this wrong?

    I would have thought a Disability Forum would have been more understanding.

    I know what you are going through @Catherine21 as I am sure do many other members and my heart goes out to you.

    As I am going away this morning I will not be around much for the next week but I will be thinking of you @Catherine21

    Take care.

    Thankyou so much im lost broken im starting to feel shes gone my one true love my heart god losing two at the same time that's tough my little baby girl im walking around in a daze life will never be the same I hope your health is OK and you are OK and thankyou im disappointed in a couple of people who I've veen very good to in past haven't reached out but you discover who the people really are she wasn't just a dog she was my companion my soul mate im blessed to have pixie and don't take that for granted ❤️ the light has gone from my life I cherish every moment I had with fifi the ashes ready to collect i just cant face it cant bare to think of her as ashes xx

    I'm attaching a little article for you, published by Bel Mooney in the Mail today; I'm not suggesting what you should do, only do whatever feels right for you in your own time.

    I know exactly what you mean about her ashes. My three that passed I took each on the same day they'd passed, to the pet crematorium, waited and brought them back in their casket the same day. It was emotionally distressing but the lady did a little, lovely service for them. Once you have her ashes home, Fifi is home. Yes, in a different form, that none of us would want, but she's back with you and little Pixie. Mine are all on my piano surrounded by little angels and suchlike. I believe they are with us in spirit anyway, all of the time🫂 ****

    Very valid points, I never considered exactly someone's state of mind when deciding where to post but that's so true; mine was atrocious when I lost my dogs, very fragile 😪.

    Some of my days can be good, bad, boring - all in the same day 🙄 so I'll often just not bother posting then.

    I hope you have a lovely holiday and rest and that the weather improves.

    Thank you so much for asking @Catherine21 my health is stable again thankfully, was able to just about swerve the hospital last week!

    It's a lovely idea to get a cross for Fifi in your garden. I'm sorry you were so upset when out and about, look after yourself and be kind to yourself. Grief isn't 'neat and tidy' and can catch us unawares too xx
