I am so sorry. She had a wonderful LONG life and will now be running happily at the Bridge waiting for you - one fine day.

I usually don't seek advice online, but I looked for sites on grieving to make sure that I'm not going crazy.
I came across the following site that was really helpful to me.
One section in particular had amazing insights about the difference in grieving for a pet vs for a person.
Someone who has never been owned by a pet wouldn't understand, but everyone else will.

Reading about your dear Willa brought tears to my eyes. :( People who have lost animals they loved that much know the pain you have to get through to recover. But what matters is how much love you had for her. She knows you will love her forever. She had 21 full years of happiness, joy, and love. Im sure she appreciated having you be with her through the last days of her life on earth. But she now can be free of the the pain she was suffering. She can run free and eat all she wants in the Rainbow Bridge. But she will always be watching you, and loving you. I didn't know Willa, but she sounds wonderful and lovable and looks absolutely adorable! :love::love:
I hope you are enjoying you new life in the Rainbow Bride, dear Willa. You mom will remember you always.
Everybody, thank you for your kind words!:love:
I decided today to take Willa's medical record as a keepsake.
I also did something that might seem a little out there. I found a whole body x-ray from 3 years ago, and I ordered a 11x14 poster of it, a unique view of Willa.
Oh, what a nice idea, that X-ray poster!
:love::love::love::love::love::love::love::love:
My heart goes out to you and dear Wila. May happy memories of Wila help you through this difficult time and always. Run free and happy over the Rainbow Bridge dear Wila and watch over your family down here on Earth.
I'm sorry to hear about Willa.
