On Grief and Losing Bagha [en]
I’m in India. I’m in Pune. I’m in IUCAA. I’m where Bagha was born, where I started to love him.

Grieving My Little Feline Family [en]
I am so unbelievably sad to be left without my beautiful Quintus. I don’t want my life to be without him. I miss him, physically.

Quintus, étapes d’un adieu (2) 11.12.2020 19:54 Quand j’exprime ici ma peine face à la mort à venir de Quintus, je mesure la chance que j’ai d’être entourée (pas par hasard) d’autant de personnes qui comprennent la peine de perdre un animal de compagnie, et l’immense difficulté de planifier sa mort. Ne pas être reconnu … Continue reading “Quintus, étapes d’un adieu (3) [fr]“
