I'm so very sorry to hear of your devastating loss of little Smalls. It always seems so unfair when they are taken so young. You are left with a big hole in your hearts and you still have the love you used to give to her, only she is no longer here to receive that love.
When I have lost one of my own pups, the only way I could heal and even begin to feel better was to welcome a new little soul into my home, and into my heart where there was more than enough room and an abundance of love to shower on her. I felt God had other plans for my baby and that He needed me to care for another who is still of this Earth, but needing the love and care I still had to give. Getting another Yorkie is the only thing that even began to heal the hurt and pain I felt from my loss.
Some folks talk about being unable to replace their beloved pup, and I agree, one can never replace a Yorkie, as they are all so different. Finding a replacement is impossible.
I decided I would not be replacing my pup, but adding a new life (or new to me as I adopted and older pup... actually four older pups) to my then empty house. I just knew in my heart that my pup who had passed would never want me to be that sad over her, but would instead want me to continue to live and enjoy living, and not to waste the love I still had in my heart, but to share it with one in need, and to keep her in my heart forever, which is where her memory lives on, until we meet again.
I wish you and your family Godspeed through your journey of grief and heartache over the loss of little Smalls. But know that she is not lost, she is and will always be in your hearts until you meet again. I pray that God helps your family through the excrutiating pain you are feeling from her parting, but rest assured she is in Good Hands and is at Peace.
RIP Little Smalls. Know that your family has Great Love for you and that you will be dearly missed. |
