I've thought a lot about the pain that we feel because of losing our little ones, and although it is difficult, I'm not sorry that it doesn't completely go away. The feelings of love remain so powerful, and we never forget how much our babies mean to us and the impact that they have had on our lives. The crystal cube that I have of Kiwi's photo has the words inscribed "Love Lasts Forever." I know you know this to be true because of how you feel about Nika. I can feel it in every word you write. I am really glad that I have "met" you here on YorkieTalk, but I'm so sorry that you lost your baby, especially at such a young age. You will always have beautiful memories of Nika and you will forever carry her in your heart. |
i am so fortunate that i have met you on this site and i think of you very often too. lisa i am proud to have you as a friend. being there to help me cope has meant so much to me. you are a very special person and i can tell you care so much. your angels were lucky to have had such a wonderful mommy. i have shared stories and pictures of your sweet angels with my boyfriend justin and my dad and other family members. pretty much my whole family are "yorkie people" and they have loved seeing the pictures and hearing the stories. i know ashley was diagnosed with an enlarged heart at 10 years old and with your love and care, she made it another almost 7 years. my grandmother's yorkie, ellie (9 years old) was diagnosed with an enlarged heart almost 2 years ago. ashley's story has given her hope that she could have her baby around a long time still too. my grandmother will be 84 years old in january and her sweet little girl ellie keeps her going and keeps her healthy, which keeps little ellie going and healthy too, i know it.
there have been so many tears from losing nika and i know there always will be. it was truly devastating to see her having that seizure on the last night of her life. when i think about it, it feels like someone is ripping my heart out. i try hard not to let that take over and remember the love and happy times with my baby. those memories are the most powerful in my mind for sure. thank you so much for your heartfelt words. they warm my heart and always will. hugs to you my friend.
