July 17, 2008.......My "EARTH BOUND ANGEL".....joined her furbaby granddaughter, Esabella who I wrote about her when she past on November 23, 2004. I am back with Lightning Strike again .....and dreadfully, mourning my beautiful, awesome, love of my life....Coco.
Coco was diagnosed with CHF, two years ago. Her precious heart enlarged and she starting couching endlessly, trying to get that trachea back in place so she could breathe properly. She had an amazing source of endurance, despite everything she was going through. Coco taught me so many things...but mainly..no matter how hard, or difficult life issues present.....be strong, fight hard, never give up and smile. Always smile no matter how difficult life can be.
I'm trying to smile......but I am so terribly weak right now. Going through this change of life, which is radical......is a struggle.
Coco and I were blessed.....I feel because she was a special gift given to me and we were able to be together for 18.7 years. I loved Coco like a child....a loving family member....not like an pet...kept outside. She was my best friend and companion who loved me unconditionally and provided support when my heart was in pain when dealing with difficult times.
The doctor's were amazed by her and how she coped each day with her condition.......and still she looked so beautiful, you would never know she was sick.
July 10, she took a rapid turn for the worst and finally I was able to pray that Coco wouldn't suffer in her dying and death stage. She had a small stroke and was unable to eat and drink. I forced fed her as she seemed so hungry...always had a great appetite. The final hours were evident. She wanted to go outside and I carried her down to the Bay where she snuggled in the soft grass facing the sunset. I felt compelled to share my feelings with her, said some many loving things, recalling our life together. But mainly....in tears, I told her that it is ok now for her to go and join Esabella in heaven. I said, she wouldn't have pills put down her throat anymore and she will be so happy....running and playing. The sunset light was directed straight to her and her precious body glowed. Coco passed on that night...as she waited for me to close my eyes and then she took her ascending flight on her journey to meet with all her friends.
I thank Coco and God for being in my life and will tribute our loving memories forever.
We lived for each other for 18 years and now she is at peace....while I tearfully wait for mine. I will forever LOVE YOU MY BLESSED COCO.MY BELOVED POMERANIAN[indent][/indent]

Oh Litebrez, I'm so sorry to meet up with you under such sad cir%%stances. We lost both of our babies right around the same time. It has to mean something. Luba and Esabella. Coco and Falkor. I am in tears reading your tribute. I can't even bring myself to write one about Falkor yet.

Litebrez,
It is with deep sadness that I learn of the passing of your beloved Coco. We also had a Pom named CoCo, whom we lost two years ago July 1st. Now our Coco's are together and are well and happy and know no pain. I hope they are running and playing and comparing notes on those who loved them. My heart goes out to you and your Coco. You are in my thoughts and prayers this evening. Blessings, Steve CoCo's Dad -------------------- You left paw prints on our hearts.
