| Thanks to you all... ...for your kindness and compassion since the loss of my sweet, little Molly last week. It has, needless to say, been a very difficult week for us. I've been crying a lot, which Maggie (my 4 year old) doesn't like one bit. I know that I'm luckier than some. Molly was not my only fur baby...I still have Maggie and MacKenzie. That doesn't make the loss of her any less difficult for me. Molly (my "middle child") had a very different personality than the other two. I don't know how to explain her sweetness. She used to listen...really listen (with the head bobbing and all that went with it) while I played my flute...just sitting at my feet and listening to me. Maggie sleeps and MacKenzie hides in the bookcase. Molly listened! (I've not played since she died!) Anyway, it's hard. I look at the two I have and see a little ghost of the one precious puppy that I lost. I know it'll get better with time, but..... One of my girls is missing, and I hate it!!!! And yes...my neighbors did have their dog put down the morning after Molly's death. (This really doesn't make me feel any better. It's as if they felt the death of Bailey was payment for Molly). They've moved on...went out and got themselves a kitten...named it Hope...want me to be excited about all of this. Anyway, thanks for caring. And thanks very much for understanding what I'm going through. (One of my brothers came over and made a remark about "only a dog". As I kicked him out of the house, I pointed out that perhaps his is "only a dog"....mine are my fur babies. His wife, whom I also kicked to the curb, made some sort of remark about the fact that I'd only had her for two months (as if one can't be totally, idiotically head over heels in love with one of these little ones in seconds). I'll get over it. I know I will. For now it's way too new. Thanks for caring about me. |

| Continue to play your flute for her....Something in my heart always feels that they can listen, even at Rainbow Bridge.

| Figment, I can relate to you.. I am coping pretty well with the loss of my baby.. I am still praying for you and hope things will get better.. I know its so hard but just think about all the nice memories you had with Molly.. That is how I am coping right now.. I was finally able to look at pictures of Mocha today and not cry!! You know your baby is up in heaven still listening to your flute.. Maybe you should play so she can hear you again and rest peacefully up in heaven.. All my best and if you need a friend, I am hear for you

| June was a very difficult month for YT members. Glad you are posting your feeling where they are understood. I do hope your neighbors will pay for Mocha and in time you might get another one to love. Best wishes |

| After a dark cloud, and after the rain...there is sun Figment713, I was glad to hear from you! I know I speak for many other YT members. It is good that you are grieving the loss of precious Molly. I am sure it has been a devastatingly depressing week for you! Though it doesn't sound that your brother and sister in law are supportive of your loss,( possibly because they don't understand the loss of a dog, though all of us know it's more than a dog or a pet), I am hoping you have other supports to talk with. Of course, you have us here at YT. And posting today is a first step. I agree that you should play the flute and I would even go further by saying you should play something that you thought she had liked, or possibly come up with a new tune just for Molly. But music is a form of therapy and healing, and this may be therapeutic for you since you have this talent. Anyway, good to hear from you. Hopefully, we'll be in touch soon! ~Bella, General Patton, & Maria~

| Figment, I'm so sorry for what you are going through. I don't even want to imagine how it would feel. So I admire you for being able to come on here and share your feelings. You are allowed to cry and miss her, so do what your heart says and don't pay attention to what anyone says. Unless they have something supportive to say, don't pay attention. Just feel how you feel and let it heal you. We are all here for you and will keep the memories of Molly in our hearts. Any time you want to talk, just PM me. Coco sends you a wet kiss and a hug.

| Figment, I am so glad to see you back again, and even happier to hear that you are doing "okay", even though I know that okay is not as good as it was before. I feel bad for your neighbors and your brother and sister-in-law. Obviously, if they can't understand the pain of losing a beloved pet, then they will never know the joy of having one. I think all of us here at YT understand and will be here for you through whatever you need to say. Hope to hear from you again, you are still in my thoughts. |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Figment - you are so good to come tell everyone how you are feeling - I know you've been on alot of minds - It's a shame about your neighbors dog - but it may save another little baby from the same fate...and as far as your family ? they just don't understand. She sounds so special with your music - I know she'd want to hear you play from Rainbow Bridge...maybe you could play for her. |

| Figment, it's so good to hear from you. Thanks so much for sharing the story of playing your flute for Molly. Music is so therapeutic. Please don't stop playing. I understand your frustration with your brother and his wife. There are lots of people that just will never understand the bond that we have with our babies. Their loss. Express your feelings but try not to let it ruin your relationship with them. We're all here for you and praying for you.

| As a new member and yorkie lover, the loss of your pet hit me much harder than I expected. I smile when my own family rolls their eyes as I let my girls kiss me all over my face. Not to be sympathetic to the loss of one is amazingly ill mannered. I think this group makes up for those that just do not understand. My prayers are with you. |
