It feels better to tell their stories doesn't it? Your story was nice, and it sounds like you've opened your heart to compassion often over the years. Tiny had a good life with you, surrounded with love. You did everything right, and you shouldn't have any remorse. I do hope time brings you peace.
In time your broken heart will ache less, and only a small tear will well up in the corner of your eye as you recall all of the GOOD times with Tiny. Time doesn't really heal, like so many people say, but it does ease the intense pain one feels so close to a loss. There's a whole process to grieving, there's the intense pain and suffering, then time smoothes it over eventually, and there's guilt, because you feel bad that you're NOT still in such intense pain, because you think you should be; then there's acceptance, where you realize that it's ok to let go of the suffering, and instead recall the memories. But they are always with you, forever, and of course, that's the way we want it. I'm sorry for your loss Sally.
