My Beloved Carlie Options

[tetons]

I just lost my beloved Carlie the most beautiful black schnauzer in the world and I am lost without her. She died yesterday at around 12:50 and I cannot stop crying. I just want to hold her forever and let her provide her loving kisses. How do you get through this hurting phase? I just ache all over.

I am sorry to hear of your loss of your dearest Carlie.

We all have different ways of dealing with the loss of our fur babies. So, I am sure you will find this site extremely helpful.

The advice I can offer is to let your grief out...cry as much as you need to. Also talking about Carlie here or with family/friends. We love to share stories of our babies.

My dog Lizzy passed away 5 months ago. She had been ill with cancer so I had time to prepare for her death. But the pain was still unbearable at first. The only comfort I found was reminding myseld that she was at peace. You have to take it a day at a time. You'll have good days and not so good ones.

May you find peace and comfort in the memories that you made with Carlie.

I am so sorry to hear of your sweet Carlie's passing. Your loss is very recent and it takes time to work through the grief and sadness we are left with when they pass. Over time the hurt isn't quite as painful as it is in the beginning.

Remember your beautiful Carlie and the wonderful memories the two of you made together. While Carlie may not be there in the physical sense, she will be in your heart and on your mind for the rest of your days here on earth.

When you are ready, tell us more about Carlie and the things you loved about her. Talking about my Goliath and the time we shared helped to bring out the happier memories of what he and I shared. Posting pics of him and his sister, Gidget, also proved to be a wonderful source of comfort for me. When I share myself and my feelings with others and they share back, a bond is created between us. We take care of each other through the bad days as well as the good days. But, give yourself time and be patient.

The compassionate and understanding people you will find here will help you cope with your loss in a healthy way. Come back and tell us anything you wish. We will be here to lend you a shoulder to cry on when you need one and will also be here when you want to share a smile or a happy memory of your sweet and loving Carlie.

May you be blessed with peace, comfort, and joy until you and Carlie meet again where you will have each other forever in eternity.

I am so sorry about your loss. The replies you have already gotten here...really do say just what I would say. I just wanted to post to let you know I join in LuvLabs and Goliath's thoughts and wishes for you.

Your loss is too recent not to be extremely painful for you. Unfortunately, it takes time for the pain to be less intense..it can never go away 100% because you lost a special baby you loved with all your heart and she loved you the same. This is the worst time and the darkest time. You have to cry, to vent..whatever helps relieve some of the pain.

It will help to post here..whether stories of Carlie that can make you smile at the memory or write her a letter here telling her how much you miss her, or just whatever feels like the thing to do at this time. So many times we post here and are writing through tears...but it helps, even to do that. And other times we write replies to others here...it helps them to know they are not alone and it helps us to feel we have provided a shoulder to lean on...even if it is to get through a bad day.

Come back and tell us about Carlie...when you got her, how you named her, and of the things you loved to do together. The good memories are what we have to remind ourselves of...to remember them instead of the sadness that threatens to overwhelm us. Post a picture and talk about the picture. Somewhere in the suggestions of little things to do you may find something that helps you cope with such a tremendous loss. That's exactly what it is when we lose them...a tremendous loss. So instead of hurting so badly thinking about the loss...it really does help to think about the good years, the good times..the special things that we loved about them...besides that unconditional love they gave us. Take things one day at time and there is nothing wrong with a lot of crying.....we have all been there and do understand what is overwhelming you. All we can do is tell you what has helped us cope and hope you find something there that helps you.

Take Care and come back anytime and talk to us.

Hello Tetons, the passing of a loved one is so traumatic. No one can for sure tell you how to get through it. While we all are going through the process, some are able to come here write soenthing, and not come back, others like myself stay here to help others.

I wish I could tell you it will be easy, I can't, I know that I have spoken to others like yourself, and suggested they post pics of their beloved babies, and that really seems to help.

Remember you always have someone to talk to, sometimes reading other posts help too.
I'm so sorry for the loss of your beloved Carlie

Take Care
