I miss my dog Sal who died a week ago today. I wish I could kiss him once more and pet his soft fur. He used to sleep under the covers with me and I can't believe he's not there against my leg.
He always seemed so helpless and I worry about how he will manage without me. I guess that's dumb but it's how I feel. I want him back.
Full Version: I Miss My Sal
That is not dumb at all. If you read some of the posts, you will see that many people share your feelings. I know I do. My Daisy passed away three weeks ago and the pain is still unbearable. I believe that Daisy can manage without me because she is in God's care. Yet, even believing that, I miss her every moment.
Others tell me that it gets better. I can't believe that yet, but it does help me to share my feelings and see that others feel the same.
I am so sorry for your loss.
Daisy's Mommy

I'm so sorry about your pain! 
In the realm where Sal's spirit is now, he's not helpless. He's empowered with bliss, and he's not aware of the pain of separation from you (I believe that's a sense only we, who are still in the confines of our physical bodies, are aware of). To Sal, it will seem like no time has passed-----and you'll be joining him.
You took care of him while he was in his earthly "shell" but he's fine now. He's still connected to you, in spirit form, and to an even greater love (even though that seems impossible, that there could be such a powerful love). You'll be fully reunited with Sal when it is your time to pass.
I'm glad you found this site. Please take good care of yourself---Sal would want that, and if the roles were reversed, you'd want that for him.
You will make it. Keep us posted on how you're doing.
Sending prayers of peace,
Kathy

Thank you for your comforting words. He's such a little old man, he never watched out for himself, was completely unaware of his own safety. It was part of his charm in a way, but he got himself into a lot of trouble.
I hope that now nothing can ever hurt him again. I tried so hard to protect him, it's hard to stop. I'm constantly jumping up to check where he is and if he's ok. (He was deaf so I couldn't just call him.)
I love him and I miss him and I'll never stop.
