amazing that the death of a pet feels as bad if not worse than when some people die...

Actually, it makes you pretty human. Sorry you lost Gretchen, but I'm sure your decision was best for her. It gets better with time (looking into the formal living room where I have two small boxes sitting on the mantle).
I just got back from my second visit to the emergency vet. One of my Pixie Bobs had a severe allergic reaction to her allergy shot last night. She could barely breathe by the time I got her to the ER. She's doing better now.. 12 hours later.. but still not out of the woods.
