This Day Two Years Ago

"Lady May's Memory Post" draft began as follows:
Who can believe how fast the days and years fly by. I'm crying when I search through Lady May's photos. I'm not ready to release her completely yet. I know the wound is less deep but it's not healed over completely yet my love. 
My heart still aches when I think of her playing with the others in the yard. How close the bond between her and King was. How The Princess softened towards her when they were the remaining Royals.

Each time I put a harness on a visitor, I still mentally put Lady May's harness on her. I can still feel her ever so soft fur. I feel myself gently setting her into her trolley or her wheelcart before playtime. 

I remember how her small body felt when I cuddled her. I see her wide happy eyes as she romped and frolicked. How she shook her funny head as she zoomed along after her ball. Those times make me smile. I remember how her health deteriorated over the years with arthritis, all caused my human interaction.  I still get angry and blame those responsible. I'm thankful she had such a happy life with us for the rest of her days ...

I sat down to write that memory blog post last week. The day of Lady May’s passing was fast approaching. This morning, I tried to continue with it. I just cannot. I am still to tender, her precious memories still hurt. Even though so many of them make me smile and laugh. I’m crying and my head hurts.  Her passing was so very hard to take, she was the baby of our pack. She also marked the end of a very important era in our life. 
I can not think of her without the beautiful memories I have of her siblings, King, Princess Molly and Duchess Sammy. 

Lady May quickly bonded with King and they could often be seen laying close by each other. 

My computers two hard drives are full of photos and videos of our lives together.  I cry wishing there were photos of Duchess and Lady May together. Duchess’s passing  ( https://duchesssammy.blogspot.com/) opened the gate for Lady May’s arrival. Thus, they were never here at the same time. 

I have videos that I never posted due to their length. Today I posted them regardless of how long they are. They are now uploaded to watch without my having to search through the multitude of videos.
