My last picture taken with Buddy.I'm not one to feel sorry for myself, but I openly admit I'm tired of trying to make sense of all the loss lately. This year has not been kind to me at all. As you know, I lost my Mom after her brave battle with cancer in March. I then lost my Godfather. Last week my uncle passed away.
And on Monday, just a few days shy of 16 years together, I lost my best friend mentioned here. My sweet Buddy was the kindest dog I had ever known. I can't even begin to describe how I feel sitting here all alone without him. He was truly family to me.
I know he's with my Mom in heaven, and that does bring me some comfort. But it's just not enough. My heart is absolutely breaking.
Oh my heart is breaking too! I love my dog so much and I can't even imagine having him for 16 years and then losing him. Dogs truly do become family. I am so sorry :( Cry, cry, cry...then cry again :( I am sure Buddy is so happy and free where he is now.
ReplyDeleteI am crying for you. We lost our sweet girl, Matty(Springer Spaniel) one year ago.....in our arms. It was awful. It didn't help that our three year old granddaughter cried everytime she came to visit because she missed her so much We waited two months and found another Springer at the pound and are so in love with him.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry for all your losses. I would be tired of that for sure. I hope that things move forward from now on. I hope that this holiday season isn't too hard. I wish I was there to give you a big ole (((((HUG)))) I relaly do care about you.
Have you read the rainbow bridge poem???? http://www.petloss.com/poems/maingrp/rainbowb.htm it always helps me to deal with the loss of a four legged friend..... Blessings to you today... and prayers up for your healing
ReplyDeleteOh sweet friend, I wish I had some words that would comfort your breaking heart, but instead I am just going to lift you up in prayer! I can't wrap my head (or my heart) around so much loss for you this year, but I am so sorry. Love and hugs!
ReplyDeleteBless your heart! There are no words to fill the void, but please know that you have so many souls sitting on your shoulder to guide you as you greet each day. I guess you live your life in a way that would make them all happy and proud.
ReplyDeleteHugs to you!
Well I know how it feels to lose a dog. We lost our dog and cat a year and a half ago. They both had to be put down within a week of each other. So very sad. And, if you look at my blog, you'll see I just adopted a dog from the pound, and got a stray a couple of months ago that someone dumped at the park. We weren't even looking for a dog and ended up with two. I told my husband I never want a male dog. Well guess what? I have two! Not sure how the Welsh is going to work out. We've only had him a week but he's been in a LOT of trouble. If you lived closer, I'd be glad to let you give him a try....hmmm how far are you from Indiana?
