Few years back, 2006 or so, I posted that my white shepherd, Willow was having some health probs ... that it was touch and go because of her platelet disorder and intestinal disease ... she was three. She lived to be 7 and a half - yesterday.
oh girl i remember that, i am so sorry for your loss but she was blessed that she had you to love and care for her during those years:grouphug::grouphug:
The Rainbow Bridge By the edge of a woods, at the foot of a hill, Is a lush, green meadow where time stands still. Where the friends of man and woman do run, When their time on earth is over and done. For here, between this world and the next, Is a place where each beloved creature finds rest. On this golden land, they wait and they play, Till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day. No more do they suffer, in pain or in sadness, For here they are whole, their lives filled with gladness. Their limbs are restored, their health renewed, Their bodies have healed, with strength imbued. They romp through the grass, without even a care, Until one day they start, and sniff at the air. All ears ***** forward, eyes dart front and back, Then all of a sudden, one breaks from the pack. For just at that instant, their eyes have met; Together again, both person and pet. So they run to each other, these friends from long past, The time of their parting is over at last. The sadness they felt while they were apart, Has turned into joy once more in each heart. They embrace with a love that will last forever, And then, side-by-side, they cross over… together.
Sympathies for your loss. Willow was beautiful..... I understand your pain, I lost my sweet 11 y/o Westie on April 8th to breast cancer.... May the memories of the good times you shared with Willow bring you comfort during these sad days. I know that it must be different now that I am no longer here. I realize how much I was loved and how all of you did care. I know it will be hard at first when you look around for me. Expecting to find me in my bed or beside my favorite tree. Someday you will begin to see although it'll take some time, The happy times you shared with me , the memories are yours and mine. I'll remember you, my family, and how much you meant to me. So please don't grieve and don't be sad, it was just my time to leave.
Elims, I am so very sorry for your loss. MOST of us treat our animals as a part of the family You are a GREAT mommy to your babies. If there is anything I can do, don't hesitate to call me. :grouphug::grouphug:
So sorry for your loss. :cry: But I'm sure like everyone else has said, that you loved her like crazy and were a great doggy's mama.
Elims ~ I am so sorry to hear about this. I know how hard it is to loose a "family" member. You will always have your memories to cherish. :grouphug:
OMG I am so sorry - I seldom have time to surf 40/42 anymore, today was an exception and saw this I feel so bad for you, but know that you loved Willow so very much and you did more for her than most people could imagine. Willow had the very best care with you and you always went above and beyond to help her live as normal a life as possible. I hope the days get easier fast, cause the coconut kid wouldn't want to see you sad. Willow is in a better place, and you will see her again, I'm positive of it :grouphug:
Thanks, everyone. I can finally go a whole day without crying. I still miss her every day, and think of her often ... still listen for her, still look for her, miss hugging her, talking to her and laughing with her. I still check the clock to see if it's time for medicine or food. So now, I have one dog - my Bailey wigglebutt ... and my cat, Cinder. I can hardly remember what to do with one dog, so we're trying to re-learn.
