Suffering Overwhelming Greif Options

[tracey99]

Hello, I'm so glad I found this forum. I lost one of my dogs earlier this week and the grief is so overwhelming. I know this pain from when I was young but haven't suffered it in many years. I am finding it very difficult to cope. He was only 8 years old, and he had a heart condition. During the vet at a procedure to remove fluid from the area around his heart, his heart stopped and they could not bring him back with CPR. I am shocked and devastated. He was my little baby boy. I promised him I would always take care of him. I thought the pain would be less each day but it seems to be getting worse. I know there are people here who have gone through this and I know people survive it but right now it feels like I cannot ever know how I will move on. My heart has been ripped out.
Thank you for any words that will help me, right now I feel so lost.
