6 Months Ago...my Sweet Mickey Options

[moon_beam]

Hi, LoveMyMickey, thank you so much for sharing with us how you're doing, and your beautiful love note to your beloved Mickey. There is no doubt in my mind that the visit you had in your dream is with your beloved Mickey. Our beloved companions do find ways to let us know they are still with us, and I'm so glad you had this dream of your beloved Mickey.

I, too, am so very sorry that your husband has been ill, and am relieved that he is doing better. Please know you both are in my thoughts and prayers that he will continue to recover from this episode.

Out here in the county we do not have any warning sirens, so I try to keep "tuned in" to severe weather with the weather bug alerts on my computer. It used to be very seldom that Virginia had any tornado warnings, but now they are more frequent and the stroms are gaining in strength. I am very grateful that you and your community were spared of the wrath of the tornado fury.

I hope today is being kind to you and your husband, LoveMyMickey. Please know you both are in my thoughts and prayers, and that I always look forward to sharing your news and your treasured memories of your beloved Mickey.

Peace and blessings,
moon_beam

Thank you for sharing how you are doing. I'm sorry to hear about your husband, but glad to hear he is doing better. What a lovely dream you had. I have not had one in a long while, but I am convinced Tom came to me in other forms as apparently did your precious Mickey. Hope you are all doing well on this Caturday. TTFN

Hi Gretta's Mom, Moon_beam, and Tom's Dad,

I thank you all for your well wishes, thoughts, and prayers. Husband is doing well and back to eating well......Yes, the dream of the little white dog was comforting. As I tell Mickey goodnight every night, I tell him to visit us in a dream or whatever way he can. Some people might think I'm weird, but whatever happens in this house, stays in this house, or goes to this forum.

My friends, you all are always in my thoughts and prayers too....God Bless...

Hi, LoveMyMickey, thank you so much for sharing with us how you and your husband are doing. I am soooo glad to know he is doing much better. Getting his appetite back is a HUGE indication that he is well on the mend.

Asking your beloved Mickey to come visit you is not weird at all. There are times when I long to dream of my mom and beloved furkids, and sometimes I am blessed with a response. This earthly journey is a challenge even in the best of times. It is very comforting to have visits with our loved ones - - whatever the life form - - who have preceded us to the angels.

I hope today is treating you and your husband kindly, LoveMyMickey, and that you both will have a very peaceful evening blessed with your beloved Mickey's sweet Living Spirit to comfort and cheer you. Please know you and your husband are in my thoughts and prayers, and that I always look forward to sharing your news, and your treasured memories of your beloved Mickey.

Peace and blessings,

Hi LoveMyMickey

Thinking of you and wondering how all of you are doing. Of course, we know that Mickey is doing ... well .... Perfect. We love you, Mickey, but then you know that already, too. Thank you all for being such wonderful friends.

Thank you Moon_beam and Gretta's Mom. I hope you and furbabies are doing well today.....Last evening I was sitting here looking at Mickey's pics on my computer, and all of a sudden I missed him more than ever and I broke down and had a big cry.

They say crying is cleansing which I believe is true because I feel better today. Husband is doing well and wanted a pizza and chicken strips. So we had some delivered. I missed giving Mickey some chicken so much. Yes, Mickey is in a Perfect Place and I hope we all get there some day. I can just picture in my mind little white fuzzy Mickey running toward us.

Thank you all for being my friend and give your furbabies a special pat for me......God Bless..

LoveMyMickey

[Gretta's Mom]

Hello Love My Mickey

Pizza and chicken strips! Yes, he's definitely better. I know how something unexpected - especially something that reminds you of your dearest friend - can just open the faucet. Crying IS sometimes cleansing - at least it lets some of those bottled up feelings out. Mickey's love shines down on you all the time, and even more when he knows you're lonely or sad.

Thanks for being such a good friend.

Gretta's and Rufus's mom

Hi, LoveMyMickey, thank you so much for sharing with us how you and your husband are doing. I am so thrilled that your husband is continuing to recover from his illness.

I am always amazed at how some of the "little things" that come to our heart and memories are the ones that bring us to our knees in sorrow - - as our forum friend Cheryl so appropriately writes "just when I think things are beginning to get better . . ." Indeed, when it is your and your husband's appropriate time to join your beloved Mickey in heaven's perfect garden he will be there at the Pearly Gates eagerly greeting you. For now, though, you are blessed with your beloved Mickey's sweet Living Spirit to comfort and cheer you, and to treasure the cherished memories of his earthly journey with you.

I hope today is being kind to you and your husband, LoveMyMickey. Please know you both are in my thoughts and prayers, and that I always look forward to sharing how you both are doing and your treasured memories of your beloved Mickey.

Peace and blessings,
moon_beam

Dear LoveMyMickey, Just getting caught up on the months I was absent for - so very good to hear that your husband is getting better! I recognise those tears from apparently nowhere, I know how much it can still hurt, even when you think you are doing well...I guess each tear is a tribute to the magnificence of love and soul we shared with our angel child...please take care my friend, thinking of you, Leejaye

[Gretta's Mom]

Thank you, thank you, thank you Love My Mickey for reaching out to Bobbie in her awful sorrow. all of us are going through stuff, but right now she's got two pianos on her back. Your loving letter helped SO much. Just like you have helped me so much during the past year. I sing your "Gretta-answer" verses over and over when I walk her "little brother" Rufus.

You are one great lady, LMM. Thank you for seeing another's cry for help through your own tears. Mickey's little tail is waggin itself off because he's so proud of his wonderful mommie. YOU GO, MUM!

[LoveMyMickey]

My Dear Friends.....Thank you all for your kind and comforting words.....Today was a leaky eyes day. I met up with a nice lady in the grocery store, had an English accent. We got to talking about animals, she said she got her cat from the Humane Society, and would only leave it at the vet when they traveled to Massachusetts. She sounded like the loving and caring people on this forum. I tried to tell her about Mickey but got teary eyed.

Leejaye, it's so good to hear from you. Give Purszival and Bandit a special pat for me.

Gretta's Mom, I'm happy to help any way that I can. Give Rufus a kiss on the head for me.....And...

Moon_beam, it is always a pleasure to hear from you and to read your wise words. Give Noah a belly rub for me.

Love and Prayers for all,

LoveMyMickey

Dear Love-My Mickey

What an extraordinary gift you gave to Bobbie. The poem is exquisite. I hope it comforts her as much as your poems to and from Gretta have comforted me. You are a living saint. May all be well with you.

My dear, dear LoveMyMickey!

How can I find the words to thank you for such a perfect and beautiful poem from Trevor? All I can say, is that the words are perfect, the meaning is perfect and the peom is tucked safely in my heart. It has already done me so much good.

LoveMy Mickey, you have a heart of gold and the soul of an angel. You never knew Trevor or me and yet you are so willing to do whatever it takes to help me out, even when I'm haveing a pity party. Yes, God sent me another guardian angel and that is you. I am blessed to have you as a friend.

I have a lot of making up to do.......for all you've done for Trevor and me.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart and Trevor's too. You are simply amazing!

Hi! to Mickey! I love you, too!

Oh my goodness, Bobbie and Gretta's Mom, I didn't expect your sweet posts. I'm happy you all liked the poem and I'm happy it helped you, Bobbie. I speak from my heart. Since Mickey passed away, I have been more tender-hearted toward animals, although I dearly loved my Mugsy and Annie and grieved hard for them.

Anyway Bobbie and Gretta's Mom, you both have helped me so much too. Give your precious furbabies a belly rub for me. I love you all.

"HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY"

Dear Love My Mickey

Happy Mother's Day! You are the best dog mom Mickey could have. Right, Mickey? Arf Arf (translation: Amen to that)

Gretta and Rufus's mom

[LoveMyMickey]

Thank you Bobbie and Gretta's Mom....


My Sweet Little Mickey,

Yesterday was the second Mother's Day since you've been gone. I don't think I feel much better than I did a year ago. I looked at a lot of your pictures and oh, how I longed to touch that precious white silky hair. But that is not to be. I felt your spirit with me, but I wanted to snuggle with your little earthly body. Sweet Boy, I know you want Mommy to be happy and I am trying. I think of all the fun times we had together and I smile.

Until next time, my little one, enjoy your heavenly journey with all your angel friends. I love you and miss you more every day.

XOXOXO Mommy XOXOXO

[Bobbie]

Dear, dear LoveMyMickey!!!!!

What a stunningly beautiful gift from Trevor!!!! I know that you helped him with it and I thank you so very, very, much. Mother's Day just isn't the same any more is it?

You are one of the most creative, thoughtful people I know. And you know just how to bring a smile (and a tear) to my face and heart.

May you have a beautiful day, my friend! I will.........because of you and Trevor & Mickey & Hermy.


Love,
Bobbie

Mickey's letter to Mommy on his 15th month angel-versary:

I Remember
I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying. You found it hard to sleep.

I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
"It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."

I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times your hands reached down to me.

I was with you at the shops today. Your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.

I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care.
I want to re-assure you, that I'm not lying there.

I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "It's me."

You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.
I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there.

It's possible for me to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."

You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.

The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning
and say "Good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."

And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.

I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out... then come home to be with me.

Oh my dear, sweet LoveMyMickey!

What a perfect poem for Mickey's 15 month Angel-versary and Trevor's 10 month angel-versary!!! THANK YOU so much for capturing the thoughts that travel through my head and heart so many times per day. I know you are the same way and that you love your Mickey as much as I love my Trevor. It shows all over your site. Oh! How I wish I could have known Mickey in this life, but I really look forward to meeting in the next.

You are a very special mother and person and friend to us. You know when we need an uplift and *POOF* you are there with Mickey to help us along. I hope I can do that same for you.

HAPPY ANGEL-VERSARY DEAR MICKEY!!! Have a good one with Trevor on us! We love you guys more than ever!
