As if things weren't bad enough right now, apparently on Wednesday, Sharon had to put down Sam's dog.

Which probably is why she has gone back into an anxious state, shaking, barely able to talk.

All hugs and prayers appreciated.

Sorry .... Words can help only the tiniest bit ...

Share as much/all of this with Sam & Sharon as is right for each.

Hugs, of course. If she doesn't believe in "the ether", grab my hugs and relay same.

May all beings be happy.
May all beings be healthy.
May all beings be free of pain.
And may all beings be Loved, in this World, and in the Next.

(Freely adapted from the Metta Sutta, which is often used in meditation by Buddhists.)

"All beings" means all beings. Sam, her Dog, Sharon, you, me ... all beings.

There is no 'right' or 'wrong' way to grieve, and there is no 'timetable'. Almost anything can prompt us into Remembering ... Each of us will mourn each loss differently ... The pain usually lessens over time.

I still grieve my Domino-Kitty, and many others; I had to help put her paws on the Rainbow Bridge maybe a decade ago.

Someday, when Sam's heart-mind-soul is ready, there will be another Companion to be rescued from a shelter and to be loved. The new Companion is not a 'Replacement' or a 'Betrayal' of the lost one; no more than is a 'new' child coming into a family.

That sounds really rough! I hope things start getting better soon.
