When my partner and I lost our daughter, my good friend would randomly make his famous cranberry pancakes and drop of a few stacks in leftover boxes.

Half the time he never even let us know until he was on the road driving away. Or just left them at the door for us to find.

He made so many pancakes, but didn't say much. Knowing he was thinking of us and cared enough to drive an hour to leave pancakes at the door; it helped, a lot.

Words can fail us. Kind compassion won't.

Also, it's very forward thinking and aware to ask this one! I bet you're an amazing friend.

Hey, I'm not OP, obviously, but I want to offer you something.

Your grief represents the love and bond you had with your pet. There is no shame in loving your pet and grieving their loss; for many, it's quite like losing a child. There is no need for shame, only support and people who can care and help you through the worst of the pain.

I hope you find the support you need. Walk in the light, Landstrider.

I'm excited, what genre for you write?

Also, thanks for the answer. I appreciate it. And yes, it's still more than you think you've inspired.

Keep kicking butt and taking names.

Hey, can we ask the whole family a question?

What's each of their favourite dinner, and for the little one, what kind of cake she would like for her birthday?

Only if it's OK, I don't want to cause problems.

If not, just pass on that the whole world loves them, and is waiting to help them get safe, set up somewhere warm and fed until they're full and sleepy!

How many people do you think you've inspired?

I promise, it's more than you think.

Also, where can I buy your book?
