lyn, I'm so sorry about Fancy.
Please don't feel that you should have done things differently -- you acted out of love in everything you did for her, and the same is true for her. She stayed because she wanted to be there for you. Once you both knew it was okay for her to go, she left.That is true, selfless love.
You were both so lucky to have had each other, and you always will. Love this strong never dies.
Take care,
susanne
