What do you do to distract yourselves from thinking about death? I tried playing games and it worked for a while but not for long enough. I tried watching some of my favorite tv shows but that didn't help at all. And whatever I look at, I see and remember her.
Some of you or may be all of you will laugh but right now I don't care. Today my female cat died on the table and it's hard to hold my tears back. I tell myself "men don't cry" but that thought doesn't help at all.
Sorry to hear you lost your good friend, it's hard I know I've buried several and have one who has cancer and probably want be with us by the end of the year. I've cried over each one and don't see that changing, losing one you love be it human or animal is hard and crying is a therapy, it allows you to release painful emotions that only do harm bottled up, so cry all you need to, I know it's helped me.
Hang in there, time will heal and always remember your friend,

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
