(54,384 posts)She may already have visited you. Be sure to keep your senses keen and alert for any sort of sign that she is OK, loves you and will be there waiting for you at "home".
This happened, and still happens to me after my dad and my 2 dogs died (they were my babies).
If you are able to relax at all (it is very difficult when you are still in a state of shock) you may want to notice any sounds, smells, voices, dreams, etc. That is usually when I have been visited by my dad and dogs after they died. It's comforting and I welcome it and keep track of the visits in a journal. I get many at 11 AM (the time my dog died here at our home). A lot of people don't believe in this stuff since it can't be explained by science but once they experience something personal they realize that this is real and just not understood at this time.
