[Gpdd] MISC Condolences for Harmony and Providence

[Penny Charlesworth]

ME,

I am so sorry to read that you have lost two more of your precious piggies in such a short time. Anyone with a herd will have had the same experience and I know all too well how devastating this can be. My flock of piggies tick along nicely for months and then, suddenly, I can lose 2 or 3 in a short space of time. Having so many piggies, I expect it to happen, as many of them reach old age together, but it doesn't make it any easier to bear.

I have days of collective grief when I remember all the Piggyfriends gone on to the Rainbow Bridge. I was reminded of this yesterday when I visited our Rodentologists to collect some meds which were running low. They were making a calendar with pigtures of some of their own piggies past. Like me, they have stacks of photos to look through and many tears were shed remembering these little lost ones, even though many of them departed years ago.

How ever long we have their company it is never enough. These dear little creatures are so much a part of our lives as slaves.

May I send you rather belated condolences of the loss of Harmony and Providence. Such lovely names. May Destiny and Joy bring you some comfort during these dark days.

With love, hugs and sympathy from Penny and the Piggyfriends.
