In talking to some friends who have lost animals around the same time we lost Ursa, it seems that the initial shock and melancholy is actually a blessing in disguise. As the days and weeks and months pass by, the numbness is replaced by a sadness, an emptiness and lots of tears.
No, it doesn't get easier as time passes. If anything, I think it gets harder to accept that you will not be able to smoosh your face in their sweet fur... not even one more time.
I suppose you can only find salvation in knowing you will one day see them again... in spirit form.
I have purchased a bunch of books, in the meantime, to help people to communicate with their animals (I am assuming its for animals that are living). If it helps, I will sure let you all know! It'd be great to be able to "hear" what they have to say!
My beautiful Ursa girl
A truly one of a kind, amazing and special dog
