Elsie's Feelin' Sad
Hi. This is Elsie Fallulah speakin'. I've been thinkin' 'bout my big sister, Lucy, today...a very lot. I miss her...a very big lot. She was my bestest friend. This is a pikchur of me and her when I was just a little squirt...I was only 'bout 6 weeks old here. I was super-little and she was super-big then. She hated me...hated my guts. But...over time, she realized that I was a-okay.
When I was little, I followed her everywhere. It made her so mad...I didn't do it to make her mad...it's just that I wanted to be like her...do everything she did, the way she did it and when she did it. Even though she hated me, it was good to just be near her and hear her purr and duck when she went to slap me upside the head.
This is a pikchur of Lucy the very first time she ever laid eyes on me...see, I was a bottle baby...mommy had to feed me a bottle every 3 hours. Since I was so little and Lucy & Ricky was so big, mommy made me a groovy little apartment in this here big carrier. You can hardly see me in it 'cause of Lucy's big you-know-what...she was definitely a plus-size model back in them days.
I'd give anything to have Lucy here with us again. I miss her headbutts and face washes. I just miss her. DANG OL' CANCER! Why'd you have to take my big sister away?
Very truly yours,
Elsie Fallulah Graves
Oh no...so sad. Lucy is with my big sister, Taffy now. I am sure they are friends.

We're sorry that you lost your big sister to cancer. Although it was nice seeing the photos of you two together - you were a cute kitten. It's no wonder Lucy couldn't resist your charms.
Purrs & gentle headbutts

I'm so sorry about Lucy :( At least you have memories of her. That helps keep her 'alive' a little bit .

hi Elsie
I am real sad that you miss Lucy, she sounds like she was a great Momma kitty to you. I am sure she is still watching over you everyday though. She is a kitty angel with special kitty angel powers. She is will wait for you until she can see you again.

I'm sorry your missing your sweet Lucy so much. We furry friends are never forgotten in our beans hearts. Cancer is evil for sure. No wonder you won her over, you certainly were a cutie patootie.
Lucy looks like a snuggly sweetheart.

Elsie, we know how much you miss your big sister Lucy. I lost my big sister Gizmo to cancer, too. But remember, they're playing together over the Rainbow Bridge and they don't have that nasty cancer anymore.
We have a lot in common - I was a bottle baby like you, every 3 hours!
Could I ask a favor? I'm having a birthday blitz for my beansister and would be ever so grateful if you could join us!

Elsie, I am sorry you lost your good friend Lucy to cancer and you are still feeling sad sometimes. Cancer is a very bad and mean thing.
