I am so sorry for your loss of Suso. My hardest loss, almost ten years ago, was of my English Bull. I drew and painted her during her life, but never could afterwards. It was a long hard road back into my life, a life in which I always carry her and can feel in my body exactly where I do, can feel her there.

What I have done since is painted animals whose deaths have left others bereft and have given those people the original or prints. In the last week I have delivered painting and prints of an old hippopotamus and had the honor of being there for many people's last visits before her death.

I know others write songs or poems to capture their bereavement.

Take care in the months ahead.
