I am so sorry about Rocky. Then it's a sad, but nice, feeling reading this. Wonderful that Rocky came to say goodbye in that way, and even more wonderful that Son recognized it. Yes, like his Mom, he is able to use words to put the reader right there with himm.

How beautiful! It's not surprising that your son is so talented with words - he had the best of the best for a mother!

I think Sinome said it all. I came to the comments page thinking "Mom you sure did a good job." That will be a wonderful crown!

Fully letting go starts the healing process. You shared what I said to a friend that we read and are read by many from all over the world.
