Thankyou so much to all those people who responded to my post "Best
Friend"on the 13/12, your well wishes and kind words were of real comfort on
what was undoubtedly the worst day of my life. It's funny, Squirm didn't
talk my language, laugh at my jokes or share hardly any of my interests, and
yet there was a bond between us that I can't imagine being any more
satisfying to me. The most difficult part is driving home and realising that
she won't be there anymore - my house feels empty and I miss my little mate.

Do not be surprised if one day a new little mate shows up at your door. This
happens often. I can't but help believe our departed friends send them to
us. Squirm will send you a sign when it is time to let go if you let her.
