Mark, I'm so sorry. Of all the inadvertent cruelties of life, the shortness of their lifespans relative to ours is one that hits me often, and one I'm grappling with at the moment, as I read about rescue cats and try to make love bigger in my head than the potential for loss. Because with Polly, it was like watching my heart die, plain and simple.

It's no small thing to have a piece of our hearts vulnerably running around outside of us like that. But I think they gather and store a lot of love of a kind that is hard for adults to express so earnestly to each other. They radiate it. So I'm glad both for Sonya and for you and Janice that Sonya had so many people to love her.

Oh Mark, I'm sorry to hear this. Love & light to all of you at the Bunker.

Rest easy, Sonya!
