Skoota still isn't HOME

Alison Neighbourly Lead from Kamo

His owner's heart is breaking -
I miss you "Monkey". Your Mum misses you.
And your Trout misses you.
Every morning for the last 78 days the three of us have had to put the mask on.
The mask of a happy face, with a big smile on it, just to pretend all is normal and nothing has changed.
But let me tell you one thing Skoota, there is so much sadness that like tonight it is even hard to start writing something.
Tonight "Monkey" I am your dad, she is you mum, he is your brother. Tonight we are scared.
Tonight we are still looking for answers and we don't get them.
Tonight again we hope for a miracle, a sign, a voice with a real answer.
We are scared for you. For us three it is easier as we stick together, hug together and cry together.
We are scared as you are probably on your own.
Tonight we don't understand and you probably don't understand.
But we are still here for you, the door remains open as closing it would be starting to give up on you. We will not.
Skoota tonight we are scared for you.
