I'm sorry for your loss.  We have an older dog who has kidney disease. We're concerned we may lose him in the not-all-that-distant future too, as kidney disease in dogs is not curable. We're older people. So we've been through it before... several times.  There are some articles in PsychCentral's archives on the topic of pet loss. Here are some links:
