It's Over, R.I.P my faithful friend Options

[petmum]

It's over, my Buddy is @ rest now, what an awful to go thru, but I hve and I'm still here.
It hasn't sunk in yet, i'm just numb....had myself a large nip of Bailey's in my coffee a while ago & eaten chocolate, I couldn't think of anything else to do.
I got chocolate for the kids too, but no one really wants to eat.... I cant believe he has gone, I just want to go outside & check to see, but I'm not just yet.....my son has gone off to football training & i'm going to take one of my daughters to choir, she is singing in the choir @ our local church tonight. My eldest daughter who is 12yrs is staying @ hme with me, she is very upset a bit angry @ the world in general....sigh...... i can't believe i've done what I've just done.....

sometimes i ask myself why its so upsetting to us that we are so upset? could it be society that has instilled in all of us that its not ok to grieve over our wonderful babies? youve just lost your beautiful buddy. fifteen days is really not enough time to get over it. i dont know that we really do. yes the pain subsides but that deep wound in our hearts really never seals up. its ok to be upset. its only been about two weeks. i always say that the first coupla weeks is really to just get over the shock of it all. just remember that buddy is looking out for you. hes so happy. keep lighting the candle for him and now as you do it, think of your favorite happy moment with him. you know, my first cat riley died a little over a year ago and fred died three months ago. i still light my candles for both of them. it makes me happy and i know they are smiling down on me, just as your buddy is too. remember that we are blessed to have them in our lives and although we outlive them unfortunately, i believe they are on loan to us from the man upstairs. your buddy taught you so much about love, patience, tolerance, life and death, (i believe all of them teach us these things) and then i like to think that they return to their maker and he is beyond thrilled to have them back. because just like you enjoyed every single second you spent with buddy, so is He now your sweetheart is surrounded with all of our loved ones. take comfort in knowing that.

please give yourself a gigantic hug (all the way from california) from me and be extra nice to yourself ok?

i continue to pray for you
