Wishing you were somehow here again Knowing we must say goodbye Try to forgive, teach me to live Give me the strength to try -From The Phantom of the Opera A few short weeks ago, my best friend had to say goodbye to her precious cat of twenty one years. As you can image, it was one of the hardest things she has ever had to do. It was also one of the kindest gifts she could have given to her little Simba. We all know what a difficult and incredibly sad decision this is to make. We question that decision long after our little angel is at rest. We talk to our friends and loves ones about him or her, and if we are lucky, we have that one person who totally gets how we are feeling, and tries to ease our pain by letting us reminisce and remember. If we're very lucky, we have that one friend. Here are a few suggestions that might help you when confronted with a friend who needs you to just listen, and be a true friend. Listen. Really listen. Your friend
