I am totaly amazed with myself ,My beloved dog Tazz got taken away so suddenly on Nov 6/2003, and I am a basket case litterally. My Grandpa passed away yesterday at 11:00 am on the 11 day and the 11 month and he was a vetran, and I feel so confused we knew he had cancer and was suffering and that he would pass way soon, but I feel like he will be taken care of and is in a place where the pain is no more, and is smiling and laughing with friends and family. so why cant I feel the same emotion for a human being that has been in my life for 40 years, comparied to My pet that I only had for 3 years . Am I totally that much of an unfeeling person? And I did love him very much, just never really expressed it much ,he was not that type of a person that showed affection much ,but in my heart I know he loved me. Corinna
