Medieval Times has always been a fond memory of my childhood, thank you for the experiences.

Is there something you've always wanted to do for the show but have been limited by certain circumstances (too costly, too dangerous, liability, etc.) and what is it?

We had to say goodbye to our old kitty 3 years ago and, even though it was expected, the process still crushed us. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a PTSD element to it.

A pet is a family member and a loved one. I think I ended up having to take a week off of work because I was so distraught and trying to help my husband mourn, too. I'm not religious but I found the prayer to St Anthony sweet:

Almighty God, I was fortunate to receive the gift of [Friend] from You. Now that he/she has left this life, please help me cope with my loss with strength and courage. I know that my beloved companion no longer suffers and will live on in many fond memories. May he/she be treated with the care and respect. As he/she has enriched my life, I pray that I may enrich the lives of others. Amen.

I'm sorry this happened to you, give yourself some grace and mourn like you need to. As with any loss, as humans, we have to go through it, not "get over it". XOXO
