Your house seems emptier now without Murphy to greet me and see me out the door. The cats, fish, and assorted hamsters and rodents are more than pets, they're full fledged family members. It's never easy to see a family member suffer or to make the decision to let them go, whether they're related by blood, marriage, or taken into your home. I can understand what you're feeling. I went through the same emotions myself a few months ago. Maybe it's not an accurate comparison but it's still painful to watch the suffering and you still grieve when they're gone. Don't doubt your decision, it was the right choice. I miss him too. Your house seems emptier now without Murphy to greet me and see me out the door.
