Sad, sad week

Last week was the worst week of my life.  I lost my only sister (she was very ill), and last Monday my beloved cat Elsa (15 yrs old) died at home.  My sister had been very ill, but her husband had to take her off life support because the doctors said she would definitely not recover.  My cat had an aggressive form of cancer, and I was planning to put her down that very same day. 2 loses within 5 days!  Many tears, much grieving.....but knowing they are no longer suffering or in pain is some consolation.
P.S. Live life now, you only pass through once.
