I see you were startled or moved by the post. Please note the datestamp (more than a month ago) of the post in which I waxed darkly poetic — my "breathful of darkness" post. And please note that I am still alive. Do I perhaps know you, and have not figured out who you are? Or are you a passing Samaritan? In any case, thank you for your concern. I will be OK. Life proceeds, and morning comes. It always comes, if not quickly enough. You have my thanks. Be well, and cherish your sleep. Hi Linda.

I am ten and my grandpa passed 2 years ago, so you can see that it is very emotional for me. My brother is five and he tried to take her out of her cage. She had a house and she sleeps in it. My brother tried to pry her out with a fish net. He dropped her and she broke her legs. She died about five hours later. I miss her so much, she was only a year old. My hamster died today.

She had a lovely death. We all played with her Saturday evening. She even spent time in her favourite "safe space", my husband's file box lid. She was his desk top hamster!! She was in her bed when I turned in for the night and I gave her a treat. She looked up at me with her big black eyes and I stroked her and thought at least she's warm, because snow was due. Sunday, I found her lying on the floor of her cage in her favourite grooming corner. My daughters thought she was sleeping but I could see she was blue round the lips and her legs were pale. When I lifted her there was some blood round her nose but she looked peaceful, her eyes closed and one paw holding the other. She was 23 months. Our first hamster, Claude (formerly known as Chloe), developed a massive inoperable bowel growth and had to be put to sleep at 5 months. He was only ill for a few days. We got Maizie the day he died. We bought Hazel on Sunday and I got her out last night. We'll grow to love her as much as the others. I think it helps to get hamsters that look different so you don't expect them to behave the same. My daughters aged 10 and 8 still cry for Claude at odd times. We put the hamsters in shoe boxes, Claude wrapped in the face cloth in which he came home from the vets. Maizie was wrapped in her bedding. It's what the girls wanted. We planted rose bushes over them to mark their graves and to stop the neighbourhood cats digging them up. I keep crying but I found it reassuring reading your stories. I can see that Maizie and even Claude had good lives and good ends, knowing they were loved. Our Maizie died on 6th April 2008.
