Just Having A Meltdown... Options

[pamurchu]

The party is over, everyone is in bed, and I am here all nostalgic and crying over my lost girl, Bailey, who should be here with me at the new year. I thought the crying was over and done with, but it comes back at the oddest times. We bought this new house because of the big yard and trees where she could chase chipmunks. But instead, she is buried in the back yard under a St. Francis statue. Oh well, thanks for indulging me in this moment of weakness. Take care of all your furry friends and please pet them and give them kisses for me tonight...

I'm so sorry, but with you tonight. Just woke up in tears thinking about my girl that died about 4 months ago. I am still so grief-stricken and sad. I know both our girls are in a better place but it is so difficult for those of us left behind.

Hoping time heals our broken hearts in this new year.

I'm without my little furry friend too, wondering if the yard critters even know she is gone, or are they still on guard for her...

Another new year and I don't know how many more sad days of grieving are ahead, but I am grateful for this forum and the support of others on this site, celebrating our lost friends and wishing each other strength. That I wish for both (all) of you - lots of healing & support for the New Year.

Agreed. Not much of a "Happy New Year" here, either. I wonder if I'll ever really be happy again. My two beloved one year old White German Shepherd dogs were murdered on November 1, 2005 by a neighbor. We've never felt grief like this before.... the violence aspect of it is more than my mind can handle at times. Mostly just go to work, then come home and sleep. They were littermates. Born together and died together. Know you are not alone in your grief. Those who don't understand have never had the joy of being in love with a dog. Mine were like sons to me.

Your beautiful babies (of course I'm a little bias )....my heart is breaking. I just can't make sense of why some things happen the way they do.....sometimes it's hard to keep my faith. I can't imagine the pain you must be going through. Not only losing two babies at one time, and not only due to tragic cir%%stance, but to be so senseless and by the hands of someone you knew....all I can say is that I'll be thinking of you and your boys. This is so unimaginable to me that I'm at a loss for words. Just know that we are here whenever you feel the need to let it all come out..no post is too long when it is about your babies...
Your friend in grief,
Kim

Gahagan,
SO sorry to read your story. I cannot believe anyone could hurt such beautiful and trusting furry friends. Here I am feeling sorry for myself for watching my dog pass a peaceful and swift death in the arms of people who loved her, and then I read your story of such tragedy and unhappiness. Well one thing is for sure--none of our three best friends are suffering now. They are happy, healthy, and whole again, romping at the Rainbow Bridge, and waiting for us. Please accept my deepest sympathy, and remember that you have support in your grief. Take care, and thanks to you and all the others for their response to my "meltdown."
