I had to let my little yoda go today 17yrs old. 5th dog I've had to put down in my life. I spent half of my life with him, none have hurt this much. He JUST had a check up and blood work done 5 days earlier. Heart strong, kidneys, liver working "great" then outta no where he had a stroke. He was always there for me. Through all my personal problems in life. Kills me to know I'll never rub that SHIH TZU pot belly or hug him again. He was Blind from birth and depended so much on us, I think thats why this hurts SO MUCH MORE than my other pets. My soul is fractured, at the moment I dont know if I can get over this. My Birthday was monday, the day of the stroke. Now i'm cursed with a birthday that I lost my most loved buddy. I hope I succeded in adding his picture. I love you yoda PLEASE R.I.P

Hi, Shane, thank you so much for sharing with us how you're doing. Getting our beloved companion's ashes back is a two-sided coin: on the one side there is the relief of having them home again, while the other side of the coin is yet another reminder that they are no longer physically with us as our hearts long for them to be. I, too, know what MaggiesMama went through, and sometimes it has taken as long as 6 months for me to be able to take one of my furkids back to the vet's office for check ups, etc., without tears streaming down my face. Please know you have both our individual and collective strength reaching out to you across the cyber miles to help you with every step of your journey.
Shane, there are no strangers here. Even though we probably will never meet one another on this side of eternity we have the strongest friendships here because we have been introduced through the most powerful common bond of love that we share with our beloved companions. We are here for you, Shane. One of the many hard adjustments we endure is developing a "new normal" that no longer includes taking physical care of our beloved companions. This takes time, Shane. The good news is that your beloved Yoda is right beside, within you, comforting you and encouraging you and letting you know that everything is okay. Although Yoda no longer requires his earthly food and medicines, he ALWAYS needs your forever love. Shane, thank you so much for sharing with us how you're doing, and I hope today is being kind to you. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers, Shane, and that I look forward to knowing how you're doing. Peace and blessings, moon_beam -------------------- In heaven's perfect garden there is no grief or pain, and all of God's creation join the angels' sweet refrain.
The most blessed way I have of knowing God's comforting love and grace is to look into the eyes and heart of God's creatures' sweet angelic face. |
