I'm sure we all stress and cry a lot. some of us have medical problems of our own that are probably caused or exacerbated by stress.
I went to my doctor and told him I cried every day. He put me on antidepressants right away. And if you lose enough animals, there is some sense of resignation that
comes too, I think. It is not any less sad or upsetting, but the amount of crying dissipates, at least for me. Because it gets so much less surprising, even if it still hurts as much.
I have lost 4 this year and 2 last year, all kittens. The survivors are pretty healthy and strong, though.
I pray to be able to go at least a year at a time without a loss. It's been since February now, when I lost Ginger. I get scared that this means there is an impending loss.
I hope that it doesn't mean you have an impending loss. I pray that all your babies will do well this year. Kelley

She could die at any time, or she could live for quite a while. (If you could add her to the prayer list, that would be great). Her name is Missy, and I love her more than anything in the world. She had an echocardiogram and was diagnosed with VSM this summer. I think I have cried every day since. Before she had the echo I thought she would be dead every day when I got home. Now I'm sure she will be. Nice as the heart list people are, I can't really read that list; it is too close to home. I can barely read this one, and I cry a lot here too. How do yall stand it? I don't think I am strong enough. Kelley
