I just found out that Luna, my Goddess Son's little girl left us about two hours ago. She spent a quiet day with her boy and then went to sleep. Luna's quiet spirit and gentle soul will be missed for a very long time. Sleep well baby girl,

Luna was, without a doubt one of the sweetest creatures I have ever met.
She was always a sweet, quiet little thing. And so tiny it sometimes seemed like she was barely there. She was playful as ferrets are but one of her favorite things in life was to ride around on her boy's shoulder. They were pals...
Now I should tell you that my GS has Aspbergers Syndrome (an autism spectrum disorder) and also PTSD... he is often a handful. But he is also a beautiful, creative and funny person with a lot of love in his heart.
When we got Luna he was in a pretty bad place....very lonely and sad. At that time it was really hard for him to make friends so he spent a lot of time either alone, with his mom or me, or tormenting his older sister. Luna was, I think, his first real friend.
GS has decided to have he creamated and then he will mix some of her ashes with clay and make a small figure to carry in his medicine bag...that way she will always be close.
And now I am going to go cry some more...
PS I know that this is completely off topic but I saw that the picture of luna was made smaller. How in the heck is that done. I am not the most computer savvy person and have tried...but all I get are these huge almost poster sized pics.

Words offer so little but I'm truly sorry for both you and your GS's loss of little Luna. Fly high little one, there is yet another bright star that sparkles in the clear night sky. Candles are lit, not only to guide your little one on her next great adventure but for you and your GS, to help heal and offer a little bit of glowing warmth. May memories soon replace grief and may your GS realize that with a gentle tickle on his cheek, and a soft breath in his ear that Luna is never far away...he need only to close his eyes. Sweet, journey little one...you are missed ciao

Thank you all for your kind words...they are much appreciated.
It is a funny thing, how you can become so attached to a little critter. We all knew that this day was coming and yet it seemed that she would be with us forever...
My GS is doing well...he has his ups and downs but is coping. He chose to go to school the next day and did well. I am very proud of him. Often he has a hard time dealing with regular life (because of his Aspbergers) so something like this can really set him back. In spite of the sadness of the situation it is awesome to see how he has grown.
As for me, when I start to miss her and the tears start to fall I just picture her chasing butterflies in the sunshine...
Blessings, Jackie

Thank you. Luna was a very special little girl (but then again aren't they all?) and we miss her terribly. However I know that she will be with us always....
She and Monster (lord I dread the day when my Monster-butt goes) gave us ferrets....they were the first of what has become a family passion. They have given us love, laughter and joy in great abundance...more then I ever thought possible.
Every neglected, abused, or abandoned ferret that I take in is their legacy. Every sad, lost little soul who finds a home with us is our tribute to them...our thank you for everything they have given us. And through them my little loony will always live.
