Be at peace...... Take care Love, Sasha -------------------- In Memory of Charcoal (?-Dec '02), Caden (May '05-July '05), and Fluffy Tail (June '05-Dec '05) I love you all, my sweet babies

I am so heartbroken for you. My dog Leon, crossed over the bridge on Thanksgiving Morning at 2:30 am- also because of cancer. We really only knew of his cancer for maybe a few hours?? It started with a mass on his spleen- then we had them do surgery- the surgery found more cancer on his liver, lymphnodes, stomach. It came on so quick- He'd only started showing symptoms 2 weeks before. As my father-in-law said... Cancer for dogs may just move quicker- since they have a shorter life expectancy. I don't really know why- but that comforted me somewhat to know that it was really out of our hands. My husband also said- 7 years, that was all the time we were blessed to have with Leon- it was all a part of his plan.
I am so sorry for your loss- for your pain. I think we set our minds on a different plan for those pets we care for so deeply- we really never accept that they won't always be with us- so, no matter what... it comes as a huge shock- a terrible, huge, scarey, lonely shock when they cross over the bridge and we are left behind. I hope you find comfort here, I know this has really been so helpful to me- I come here everyday- sometimes 3-4 times a day. I am so sorry for your loss. -Rebecca -------------------- Leon- you little love, you stole my heart away the second we first met... I'm so sad to have to say goodbye so soon. All my love to you forever. Go play with your new friends... I just miss you.
Leon entered my life October of 1998, we parted November 2005. |

I am so sorry for your loss ~ I can totally relate to the shock and disbelief of a sudden cancer ~ as was the case for my CC ~ only the month before his blood work was completely normal ~ I was blindsided with this especially after just losing Amber in March ~ It is so hard not to blame myself for not doing more ~ it was simply too late ~ he was filled with tumors in the liver and pancreas ~ I was horrified and stunned ~ I miss him terribly ~ he was the light in the storm of losing Amber and the illumination of innocence in general for the journey of my own life ~ These days are difficult ~ yet ~ for me the vidication of this death has been a greater compassion and love for those left behind ~ at such a cost I know but a gift none the less ~ in this brave old world it is something we all sorely need for one another ~ Sometimes I think our animals are angels sent from God to be with us a short time to help us on our way ~ I am still whirling in clouds of rain over this however and I am not at a point where I can think clearly about the "why's" at any rate at all ~ Instead I am stumbling though my grief a day ~ sometimes a few hours at a time ~ and thankful for communities such as this where I can "come" and rest a while along my way ~ even when I cannot write my thoughts, reading the thoughts and events that others share is such an immense help to me ~ or even knowing that you are all just "there" can make the difference to me in making it through a rough spot in the path ~ So I thank you ~ You are brave and you have dared to love and share the story of that love with us ~ God Speed ~
-------------------- Peace Be With You ~ Kathryn ~ Angel Amber ~ Angel CC~ and Sammie
I lost my Amber Tabby Girl of nearly 20 years on 3/28/05 after a valiant battle with end stage CRF. Always a beacon in the storm ~ steady and true. C.C was my purebred White Angora I lost to cancer on 10/22/05 at age 13~ A Big Gentle yet Oddly Eccentric Creature ~Through his congenital deaf ness ~He brought an innocent joy to my life and light to my heart I also adopted an 8 yr old Burmese named Samantha who led me back into my own room ~ still a stranger to me ~ she sweetly gives peace to Amber's final days spent there and lights my way to see in the darkness of the spaces that my precious CC has left behind. |

I am so sorry about your Joey. I lost my Zody in a similiar way, he was diagnosed in June 2003 and I had to put him to sleep in august 2003. I will never forget those cherised last few moment, I spent every spare moment pampering him.
I still miss him everyday but I try to focus on the happy times and lovely memories. The love we share doesn't die. -------------------- Nymph (my silver girl): May 3, 1987-September 23, 2005
Spicey (my golden girl): July 18, 1989-Aug. 17, 2005 Zody (my black boy): February 22, 1987-Aug. 20, 2003 AS well Mushi, Mr. Wonderful, Blackie, Trixie, Neptune Love you all forever and always |

HI ROX.,
I TOO JUST JOINED THE FORUM..IT'S GOOD TO KNOW IT EXISTS.. SOMETIMES TALKING TO FRIENDS OR FAMILY ISNT ENOUGH.. I LOST MY HEIDI, DOBERMAN, 11 YEARS OLD TOO... MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS ASK IF I'M GOING TO GET ANOTHER DOBERMAN., I DONT KNOW .. I HAVE A LAB WHO MISSES HER AND I'M TRYING NOT TO BE SELFISH... SOMETIMES IT HELPS TO MAKE A MEMORIAL LIKE PUTTING ALL OF FAVORITE PICS OF YOUR JOEY IN ONE BIG FRAME. HEALING TAKES A LOT TIME.. I BELIEVE YOUR LOVED ONES WHO HAVE CROSSED OVER WILL BE THERE TO GUIDE THEM... EVEN IF IT TAKES HUMONGOUS BEGGIN STRIPS TO LURE THEM TO IT.....
