How Do I Cope With Death and Grief?

Question by EVIL_INNOCENCE: How do I cope with death and grief?
Our family just got news from the vet. Our oldest Dog Bailey, isnt doing so well. She might not make it untill tomorrow. Bailey is 13, 90% blind and going def, Shes just old. There is nothing we can to about it. These things happen. I seem calm while typing this, but in reality I am breaking down, crying nonstop. I cant control it.
This is the first animal death we have had in a while. The first one for me was my hamster. Bad, but not as bad as looking your childhood companion. We have 2 other dogs that will also be greiving.
Please help pull our family back together.

Think of the good times and only time heals. I don’t know any other way to put it. Better than watching your dog suffer, just believe it’s better than your dog suffering. Give it time.
