Attachment,loss and pets
I came across an article where a grieving couple committed suicide after their pet died.
I have met people who have told me, that the loss of their pet, has had more of an impact than members of their family or friends. I struggle to take them seriously.
I am still trying to understand this. I know it happens, but I guess I never see myself in that position.
I have lost a number of dogs over the years, but those losses can never compare to any friends or family that I have lost.
We all have our different ways of dealing with grief.
