    They are. I realise I don't think I have one photo of my 4; I have hundreds on my PC and 'phone but not one proper photo. I might send some off to get printed to put on wall xx

    Nice post

    I think sometimes it's refreshing to allow emotions like this to run their course, I wouldn't say it feels "pleasant" as such but it feels "right", in contrast to lots of emotions - especially ones generated by mental health issues

    Your observation brought a tear or two to my eyes. Thank you. They're not of sadness but of ? relief at such a lack of judgement and generosity of spirit. Having been 'ostracised' by family and 'friends' (who really must think mental health issues will never affect them unexpectedly as they have me and disrupted my life), this is the only place I can share, and that means an awful lot. So my thanks to you @66Mustang from my heart. (Edited @66mustang - the following is NOT directed at you, ๐Ÿซ ).

    Let me share/stress - for those of you who judge me, I say this. I acknowledge I can be a pain in the **** , I strive, daily, to improve (do you??) so that I am not; knowing that when my dogs are not here neither am I. I am 'happy' with that - my GP knows so don't worry; so I make the most of now, I'm going nowhere whilst I've got my beloved companions by my side, so you're stuck with me for now. So I seek support/solace here and feel no shame whatsoever in saying that. I've not experienced unkindness here but I've seen others who have: not for me thanks. And I'll always call it out when I see it. Just be kind, and if you can't be, take a step back to reflect on how your words affect others, it can be very upsetting.

    As I've now been up all night with a very sick dog I will be back when I can. Take care, don't be silenced and be kind xx

    You've been so incredibly strong @Catherine21, you've got this! Did the hospital give you anything to help with the pain or any advice? Now it's getting into spring, it might be a nice idea to think about the area you have in your garden in memory of fifi if there's some nice summery plants that could be added soon.

    Aww that's not great. Hopefully it'll pass, as will the stress and anxiety. We've had a few tulips too, just after the daffodils. It's definitely beginning to get more colourful in the garden. I'm pleased yours is looking good. ๐Ÿ˜Š
