Molly is going to get really fat.   She is eating up all of the snacks she normally gets and the ones you normally get.  So far, she has had several pancakes, quite a few cookies, and also some french fries.

To be honest, I feel a bit sad for her.   It’s not possible to tell a dog that their long-time dog friend is gone.   Maybe you could do me a favor and just pass that onto her.  She is walking around sometimes looking around to see where you are.   You’re not on the balcony, or anywhere in here, she is finding out.

When we come home at night or at lunchtime, she doesn’t hear us.   We didn’t realize she was taking so many queues from you.   She can’t hear very well, really.

I just want to let you know that we are thinking of you and love you so much.   We are sad that you’re gone.   We keep thinking about you and how hard it is for you to be away from us now.   It was all so sudden, your going. But we’re going our best to remember the good times with you (there were no bad times) and adjust to our different lives. You will live on in our hearts forever.
