Psychic Bonds With Our Furry Friends

I read a book a few years ago called "Dogs Who Know When Their Owners are Coming Home." The book talks about cats and birds also. There were several studies done in which observations were made about how dogs react when their caregivers are on their way home. An observer would stay in the home to make sure there weren't any cues such as a family member putting the kettle on or starting dinner, and another stayed with the absent caregiver to make sure there weren't any phone calls home etc. They found out that the dog got excited when the caregiver "thought" about coming home. For instance, if the caregiver got in the car to come home but had errands to run, the dog didn't get excited until the errands were complete and the caregiver got back in the car and "thought" about coming home. Animals are so much more spiritual than us. We unlearn our natural spirituality in childhood and then get so busy trying to make money, feed our families, watching TV, etc. that we lose it entirely. There are forces in this world that we no nothing about. Very few animals were killed during the tsunami because "something" told them to head inland. If it's going to thunder, Robert (my found-in-the -woods lab mix) will let me know before any weatherman can. We need to open up our minds and listen to our animals. I don't see any reason that this psychic bond stops just because the physical body has gone. Have a look at the website below. It's very interesting.

I know I can't hold and cuddle my Sandy P physically anymore, but I still feel like she is close by. I had to teach a group of new nurses today, and I was afraid I was going to burst into tears but I was okay. I still can't talk about it with anyone at work yet. I still cry every day, but not all day. This website had helped me so much--I'm just so sad that there are so many of us suffering, but I'm glad we can come her to talk.

It's Been Eight Days

It's been 8 days since I had Sandy P put to sleep, and I still don't feel like it's getting any easier. When I had her put to sleep (the vet came out to the car to do it), I felt such an overwhelming sense of peace and love travel through my body. I think it was when her spirit left her body. It lasted about 30 seconds then was gone. I try and find comfort in that, but when I try and recapture that feeling, I can't. I'm afraid that if I keep trying too hard, I'm going to mess it up somehow and I won't remember it properly. You'll probably think I'm nuts when I tell you this: I have big bottle of calcium pills. Every time I take one, I think to myself "when all these pills are gone, things will be a little better." My husband is being so patient and supportive, but I've known Sandy P longer than I've known my husband so he understands. Sandy P saw me through a rough divorce and nursing school. I'm hanging in there...I've got an early morning meeting I've got to go to so I'd better dry my eyes and get going. I think about all of you often.

Love,
