I woke this morning at around 5.40am and wept tears as it came back to me that he was gone. Our youngest dog was laid on my bed on the outside edge and I heard his wagging his tail against the bed suddenly and then stopped, which the dogs only do when someone is awake and walking around the room. I knew immediately he'd seen Zack. He loved him and Zack was like a surrogate grandfather to him. I turned over but couldn't see anything but I felt it was him. It's said that animals and children can see things that we cannot. I spoke to my mum later that morning about it and she said she'd woken up around the same time and heard the birds singing outside then she heard a tinkling sound in her room then it was gone. That was so like Zack he would go from room to room to see where we were and what we were doing. My mum thinks he's come home as he knows I'm grieving to give me comfort and it did give me some comfort in a way that I feel he's still with me in some way and that he's at peace. Maybe some people might think it was in my imagination but I felt that was what had happened. |
I don't think it was your imagination. There have been times in my life, when I can feel my Mothers presence, as surely as if she were in the room with me. I believe it is true of animals that have loved us, as well.
I know you're grieving...I've been there, and I wish I could tell you that you'll feel better soon, but when we have had our furbabies a very long time, it takes a long time. But I can tell you, there will come a day, when your pain will be gone and you will find comfort and joy in your memories of Zack.
