So Lucy Bell was out in the pasture, crying her panicky cry that we hear only when her lifelong buddy, Cecil, is having a seizure. (there's pictures of them somewhere in my blog) The seizures had been getting worse, a neighbor on the far side of the pasture even climbed the fence and ran to my back door, frightened that something had happened. So at least I had some tiny bit of warning when I went into the barn and found him... dang, I'm still crying and it's been days...

So sorry for your loss Mary. it hurts to loose our animal friends and companion.

I can't help feeling sorry for poor Lucy Bell Mary - and of course you too. Will you try to get another companion for her do you think? It's hard to come to terms with the death of an animal friend but I hope you'll have many happy memories of Cecil to see you through this sad time.

I'm sincerely sorry to hear about your loss. It's a very sad thing.
I'm wishing you lots of strength to get through this.
I hope that Lucy Bell won't be too sad for too long either.

All the best to you both.
