I Don't Know Where To Start, I had to let my baby go on 09/29/11 Options

I have lost pets before but none have ever been like this. I have cried every day since I let my Nipper go. I was blessed to have her with me for 15 1/2 years. We went through so much together. She was always there by my side. Nipper was the first dog that I raised on my own from 7 weeks of age until the end. She was my total responsibility. I cannot get used to the fact that she won't be coming back. She will never meet me at the door again. I will never hear her jump off of the bed in the morning.

I have already been dealing with depression. Now I have this on top of it. My therapist has been very supportive but there is still so much time that I spend alone. Nipper went very peacefully. When I was holding her and waiting for the vet, she was very calm and relaxed. It was as if she was letting me know that she was ready to go.I cannot put into words how much I miss my baby girl. It feels like the pain will never go away.

I love you Nipper-02/01/96-09/29/11

Hi, nippermom, thank you so very much for sharing with us how you're doing. I'm so glad you are finding working on projects for your beloved Nipper are helping you. I, too, found working on scrapbooks and videos of my beloved furkids very helpful, as they, too, helped me to stay focused on the good memories of each of their earthly journeys with me. And I'm also so very glad the memorial marker turned out as you wanted it.

Nippermom, I know each of these things may still be a challenge to cope with, as they are also reminders that your beloved Nipper is no longer physically with you. But she continues to share your earthly journey just as she always has and always will - - for she is forever in your heart and your memories - - she is always a heartbeat close to you. And I wish to reassure you, nippermom, that we are here for you - - to share the decent days, the not so good days, and truly difficult days when the physical separation from your beloved Nipper is too oppressive to bear alone. There are no "expiration dates" here, nippermom - - you are always among friends here.

I hope today is being kind to you, nippermom. Thank you so very much for sharing with us how you're doing. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers, and look forward to sharing with you how things are going for with.

Peace and blessing,
