Trevor Has Gone Away......, he died on Friday 7/22 Options

[Bobbie]

Hello Everyone!

I guess I am back on my own. I just wrote a very long message on my sister's site (Gretta's mom) called something like "Another loss in the family..."

I will write on my own tomorrow.

God bless you all!

Dear Alfiebaby,

First, let me offer you my deepest sympathy and love in the loss of your beloved Alfie, the bravest of dogs, and little Hidra, who didn't really have a chance at life. Let me also thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for caring for both of these precious creatures. Oh yes, we are very much on the same journey and we now have each other to travel this nightmare. Everyone on L-S has been where we are and where we have been (I've had 6 other dogs in my life besides Trevor) and each is such a blessed source of comfort, understanding, support, suggestions, and especially love. Prior to Trevor's death, I thought I knew what others' grief was like, having had previous dogs that I loved as dearly. But I was wrong. And I think you understand why.

Alfie and Trevor, while they were "special needs" dogs, were, in fact, SPECIAL dogs. There was never a dog like them before and there will never ever BE another dog like them again. Our boys depended on our love, concern, care, expertise and unending love 24/7 and because we were there to give them all that and more, they came to love and trust us like no other. I know, I also learned so many things from Trevor, that would have most likely passed me by, had he been a "regular" dog. How old was Alfie? When was he diganosed? What was your life like together? If I am asking things that are too personal, please forgive me and don't answer. Alfie looks absolutely beautiful in your picture, what a sweet and loving boy. I think a friend posted a picture of Trevor a long, long time ago. I may try it again some day.

Alfiebaby, please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and Alfie all day, every day. We don't have anyting to "get through", rather we have a journey to travel and I am hoping, for both of us and all the others on L-S, that the road becomes a bit smoother, the air a bit fresher, the light a bit brighter, our memories a bit happier until that glorious day when we can, once again, be with our loves forever and ever.

Have a peaceful day!
Bobbie
