Jack, No more pain Options

[loneredhorse]

Yesterday at 1 pm my heart died with Jack's. He was a little mutt that was supposed to live with me for years. He had cancer when he was five, had chemo, did well, but it put him in heart failure several months ago. The last week I was his nurse 24/7. He got to lick my face yesterday morning and then he just stopped. He was my significant other. The only soul on earth that not only liked and loved me. He was the only one that really needed me. I feel so damned lost now.

I am very sorry to hear about your loss.
My cat, which I described as "the one", died a few weeks ago. I know exactly how you feel. Please continue to post here. This is/was my only outlet to express my sadness around people who understood what I was going through (many of them going through it right along with me).
Part of the great things about pets is that they love you no matter what, and always forgive you. And of course, they think you're the greatest thing on earth.
As your subject line said, no more pain, so Jack is in a much better place now, although I know you aren't. You'll probably feel lost for awhile, but eventually it'll get better. I'm starting to feel a bit better, not a whole lot, but I'm much better off now than I was for the 1st week when I just felt crushed and heartbroken and the pain was so intense.
I know as the weeks and months go by I'll start remembering the happy times with my cat without bursting into so many tears.

Hope you are doing ok
