Mourning
Mary was devastated by the loss of her beloved horse, Dante. For over 10 years, he had been her companion, providing her with security and comfort. Mary felt like she was betraying Dante by trying to find a replacement, as the bond they had shared was irreplaceable. Grief and sadness consumed her, making her feel powerless and like the world was a much darker place. Anyone who has lost a pet can empathize with the immense hurt she was feeling.
