Misty, I can think of you now without crying...sometimes. I don't feel you close to me very much anymore...you must know that I'm learning to get by...but that there's still a big hole in my heart.
I still miss you every day.

May you find peace and comfort in knowing how much Misty loved you in return. It's sad that a pet's life span here on earth is much shorter than ours, but the incredible love they show and teach us will remain with us forever. I think we are all much better people for having known the love of an animal.

I am so sorry that you don't feel Misty around you as much. It's good to know that you are not crying as much. But I know the feeling of the hole in the heart. Maybe it will always remain for the rest of our lives. I guess learning to get by is all we can do. Thinking of you. Hugs
Love, Ann -------------------- My girls went to the Rainbow Bridge 6 weeks and 3 days apart. Snookie had cushing's disease, and later developed diabetes. Both had cancer, Snookie had cancer of the liver, and Chili Bean had cancer of the pallet. Chili Bean was our son's chihuahua but we kept her often throughout her life and she stayed with us for the last 9 months of her life. Chili Bean also had asthma and heart failure.

Hi, JT
I'm thinking of you and Misty on this 4 month anniversary. I know the deep pain subsides with time, but the deep void we feel seems to remain. Kathleen -------------------- Shiloh and Hobbie, you're both gone from my arms, but forever in my heart.

The anniversary dates are so tough. I'm sorry that you lost your dear friend.
"Learning to live without." sums up exactly what I felt happened to me too. I learned to live without my girl. It's sad when one comes to the realization that one has, in fact, learned to live without them. In the early stages of grief it seems that life will never be possible without our beloved friends, but somehow, in some way, life continues. -------------------- "My heart has joined the thousand, for my friend stopped running today."

Don't feel sorry, Ann. She was with me a lot right after she passed. I felt her and saw her almost every day for about 2 months...that feeling that there's someone else right next to you, the glimpses in the peripheral vision. She stayed with me as long as she needed to I think. Her little sister Stormy is finally starting to get back to a normal life too; the extreme clinginess is tapering off. We do indeed become better people if we pay attention to how our pets love us and try to love others in that same way...unconditionally and without judgement or reservation. The pain does subside with time...hopefully the memories of the good times won't do the same. Maybe later this summer we'll add a new little gray girl to make our family more complete again.
 Thanks to all of you for thinking of Misty and me. The support I've received here at Lightning Strike has been truly and wonderfully a lifesaver. -------------------- |
