I am very touched by the stories and sensitive responses on the site. My miniature doxie, Cozy, lies in her bed beside me now. The only thing that remains a constant with her now is here desire to stay close by me. Her poor tummy is swollen due to complications of congestive heart failure. Last night's trip to the vet was hopeful in that the vet increased the diuretics to the most advisable and I thought she could rally. She refuses almost all food now and I only managed to get her pills down with some deli meat. Over the last few days she would eat something for awhile and then refuse it. I cannot let her go on like this but my heart is breaking over what I must do. I have been a widow for ten years and my two little dogs have seen me through some bad times. They are my only housemates and I love them so dearly. Please say a prayer that I can have the strength to do what I have to do. Thank you for hearing me out, Cozy's mom.

Doximom, please know that though some may not understand your feelings, you are not alone. Losing a beloved companion is one of the most difficult things in life. If you feel the pain about it, it's only because you truly cared for your Cozy. Take each day slowly and give yourself plenty of time and comfort.

I must go in to town to pick up Cozy's ashes today. A wooden box so unlike my warm, plump baby. |

Thank you. I know it will take time. I must go in to town to pick up Cozy's ashes today. A wooden box so unlike my warm, plump baby. Keeping my baby's ashes in an urn in my living room has given me great comfort. Giving our fur babies the proper dignity they deserve helps bring about a righteous closure. Anyway, my heart goes out to you Doximom. You are now gong through a very difficult time in the grieving process. I am here for you... Yours, Mark and Bicky |
