I know I will probably feel fine in a week or two but in the meantime it's hard. It's only been two days, so I guess I shouldn't expect much improvement at this point.

Nope. I still get choked up and it's been over two years now since we had to put Nugget to sleep (tumor in her spleen that caused internal bleeding.
) We had her for 14 years, which I guess is a long life for a golden, but it was horrible... I've never been so choked up in my life.
This is Nugster the day before I had to take her in to the vet. She was suffering and it wasn't fair to her anymore... I slept on the tile by her side the whole night (she loved to sleep on the tile):

My thoughts and prayers are with you, Richi. There's nothing harder in this world.
