Thank you very much Glamormom and spitspot for sharing your incite about dealing with the grief. You both put it eloquently.
And apologies for getting the age wrong, indeed it was 24 years and 3 months. You are very lucky indeed.
Thank you again. I too would say that Sappho and I shared one of the most incredible connections of my life. She "communicated" with me and even made up a sound (aka "name"?) for me. She would talk to me every day and she was the best leash walker I have known including the dogs that I have had.
I like what you said about "honoring them" - I am just about finished with the book I wrote to do just that, honor Sappho and the relationship we shared.
Thank you, -John
