This book is for anyone who wants to help their animals and themselves say goodbye. Often, we feel misunderstood by our surroundings or even ridiculed during this painful experience. We don't understand why this is happening now and we don't know how to move forward. With this book, I want to share my experiences with you, as I know from numerous conversations that it helps to know we are not alone with our thoughts and feelings. Even though we go through endless sadness and loneliness after the death of a loved one, whether human or animal, there comes a time after all the pain when we can hope and love again - and open our arms to a new dog friend.
