Sorry to hear of your loss. It is never easy when we lose a special little friend.
RIP Monkey. :heart:
 
Monkey was cremated. We're just home. It was quite lovely really, they had a room and I got to spend a bit more time with her.... they were very kind about the whole thing, gave us back a lovely box, the casket has her name on the top as well as some dried flowers and a card. :(
 
I'm so sorry for you loss, Rachael. :hugs: It's so beautiful what you did for her so your memories of Monkey will never fade away. :heart:

Thank you :sad3:
When I got a bit of time alone with her before she was taken for it to be done I walked away and came back to her about four times... thought I would put a couple of pics though because it feels as though she is still here. Just not how I wish she was.

*removed*

For now I'll just cry. :heart:
 
Something you may not have heard about is called an 'ash bead'. That is when you take the ashes of your dearly departed, and they are incorporated into a bead or pendant that you can wear. I am a lampworker (hobby) and I was taking classes a few weeks ago - one of my classmates runs a glass studio, and said that she makes a lot of those for people. Just a way to keep them close all the time...
 
Thank you joanne, I'll consider that. I really appreciate you posting that. :heart:
