Loosing a pet is just about the worst thing that I have ever gone through, I think the only thing worse would be to loose one of my children. I don't know where your belief system is but I do truely believe that when anyone, pets included, pass over - there is just a veil between us and them, and a thin one at that, they are with God and they are just waiting for us. Much love, our prayers are with you.... |
Yes, I completely agree with you on that. When I lost the first one on the 3rd, I thought I was having a heart attack several times. Then when I wasn't feeling that, I was feeling as tho I was ready to jump out of my skin!!! I cried hysterically!! It was the hardest thing I've ever had to do to just get out in public and when I did, I had to take take breaths to just keep myself from freaking out!!! There's this void inside you that was once filled by them. That void is what is killing me! Now having to face this again with my last one just makes me want to scream. I've never felt this much grief except for the losses of my mother and grandmother. Just imagining my life without her in it, not to mention the pain that is still there from the loss of the other......
I'm so sorry for the loss of your baby and I hope it's at least better for you now. Thank you for sharing your story with me. hugs!!
