When you lose someone special, it’s really difficult to replace them. You end up being depressed about the loss and can’t really get your focus back on life. That someone does not really have to be a human being – even when pets die, the same feeling of hopelessness enters your mind. A huge vacuum is created inside.
No, you can’t just let go of this vacuum. You can’t replace it with someone else. But you can let another try to fill that void.
Yvonne Gutierrez, a Twitter user, and her family were going through this same traumatic period too. Their pet had just passed away and depression was hitting them hard. It especially affected her father. After the father learned about the late dog, he just broke down. He couldn’t keep his emotions inside him. Healing from such trauma was tough and Yvonne Gutierrez did not know how she could help him.
