A thought for Selina
 

Okay I think we all agree we do not want Selina to stop coming around, as she truely is a HUGE asset to this site and more than that...she is a remarkable person. So in hopes she will read this can you all post a short comment, word or a thought you have for or about Selina to assure her we want her here and love her dearly.

I will start

If everyone in the world was like Selina, there would never be an animal in need.

Every pup would know they are loved!

That's so nice Diggy..

I'll say this - I didn't really know her until after reading about little Lily ....based on her posts and what she did for this tiny sick puppy, I instantly admired her. I could tell in her post that she truly loved her and I'm just so sorry she didn't make it :( ...but I know those few days she had little Lily ...she felt all the love any dog could ever want.

Selina - I'm so so sorry for your loss and hope you continue to post here. We need people like you on the site ....Hugs and please stay.

oh...for those wondering...Selina is member name SKJ1113

There isn't another yorkie mom out there like Selina. She is special and one of a kind and any furbaby would be blessed to call her mommy.

Selina, what a patient, loving person you are. You blessed little Lily's life and allowed her to bless yours.

I did not know that Lily didn't make it! Oh my goodness, I am so sad for Selina and her family!!!

I have lots of nice things to say about Selina!!!! Maybe small to others but not to me...she always always always makes a point to write super nice posts about Livi's pictures. Truly some of the sweetest comments about my fur baby come from her and she doesn't have to do this. She takes her time to make others smile...that speaks volumes about who she is. Taking precious Lily into her life also shows how beautiful her soul must be...how many of us can honestly say we would have done what she did?? What a kind and caring person she is and our board needs her!

Selina, I am so very sorry for your loss~

Tammy

Selena, you gave that baby, happiness and total love for her short life! Always have faith in yourself for the good that you do....
Bless You and your family during this trying time...

Selina , I am very sorry for your loss . I wish , you continue to post here .

I'm so sorry about Lily

I loved her devotion to Lily. I think she is very special and we need people like her on this site. It would be OUR loss if she were no longer here. Please stay!! XOXO

I am soooo sorry for your loss...I know how much love you gave Lily the short time that you had her. She was your baby...

I just found out about Lily -- via this thread -- and posted on Lily's thread. I am devastated FOR you.

Selina, I hope you will continue to hang around. I can understand why you may not want to, but I hope that the actions of a single person -- a pathetic, heartless lowlife at that -- will not keep you from people who admire you so much.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your hubby as you heal. Lily DID have a purpose. Sharing your experience with her touched so many lives --you set such a wonderful, loving example and drove the standard for Yorkie care through the roof!

Now that her job is complete, Lily can go across the bridge and enjoy the happy, healthy existence that she could not have fully achieved here. God bless you for all you did.

If everyone had a heart like Selina, there would be no homeless yorkies.

It takes a very very special person to knowingly take on the responsibility of a dog that has any illness. It takes a person with a heart of gold to take on a puppy knowing that the puppy probably isnt going to make it no matter how hard you try. Selina put the devastation she knew she was going to have to deal one day aside and thought of only Lily and her health and happiness first and that is amazing to me. She didnt have to raise this puppy, she chose it over other puppies that were healthy and would have lived normal lives. Can anyone here say they would have done the same? I have never met Selina but I can tell you through her posts that she is a special person and I believe there will be a special place in Heaven for people like Selina.

To the person that pm'd the hateful remarks to her and I dont know who you are but I just wanted to say dont worry, there is a special place set aside for you also. I only wish that when people do deeds like this, the people they do them to would come on and post their names so we can all know who the person is and what type of a person they are.

oh my goodness!! Lily didn't make it? omg that makes me so sad! I am so sorry Selina! You are going thru so much, and with what that cruel person sent to you, I hope they get what they deserve :mad: I am so sorry, but she was loved for the time that she was here, very very loved. And now she is up in heaven resting and smiling.

Selina, you are someone I stive to be like. I told you I thought you were my hero and you replied that "Lily is the hero". She showed you her strength and you gave her your love. I wish I could give you a hug. You are a remarkable person.

I hope she gets on soon and reads this and realizes how much we love her....and Lily

Selina, you have a greater capacity to love than most people that I know. My prayers are for you and your family for comfort. Please know that you are loved.

Selina,

Very few people would have been willing to take a sick dog. It shows such compassion and courage. You're an inspiration to all of us. Please don't stay away. We need you and your good, good heart.

Judy

You are truly a compassionate person and one who belongs here on YT. Don't let evil win out over good.

it looks like she is no longer a member on this site :( that is so sad. it's horrible that someone treated her that way. what is wrong with people these days/?????

selina, I do hope you come back...and I hope you know that we all know you did all you could. bless you for all you have done.

hugs...

A message from Selina...
 

Selina is really touched by everyone's kindness here and she asked me to post this for her until she is able to post herself.:)

Paula, you are very sweet for started this thread. Thank you so much. I also want to say thank you to everyone that has posted here, along with everyone who prayed for Lily and supported me through taking care of her. I can't even find the words to express how much your support and prayers have meant to me.

I decided to come back under a new name. I couldn't turn my back on the people who have given me such support. I can't let one person make me leave because there are far more good people here than bad. At the time I made the decision to leave, I was very upset, sleep deprived and very scared for Lily. I felt like I had failed her. But, now that I can think a little more clearly, I know I didn't fail her. I loved her unconditionally, and I know that she knew that. I've had a very hard time these past few days, but I know that I have to let Lily go so that she can run and play with all the other little angels. I feel so sad, and my heart is aching because I miss her so much, but I have to try to move on. It's just soooooo hard. My husband, Jake and I buried Lily yesterday in our backyard under a tree, close to where we have bonfires at night. Lily will always hold a special place in my heart that no one else has ever or will ever touch. My husband and I love her so very much, and we miss her sweet little face. Jake misses her too, he still goes to her crate to look in on her.

Right now I can't post because I'm having probs receiving the activation email. I'd rather not keep my old name, so I know I have to start over with my post count, but that's okay. Willow was kind enough to post for me.....thank you, Willow.

I decided to come back for three reasons. First and foremost, I couldn't leave all the wonderful people who have supported me. You are all very special to me and to Lily. Second, my husband and I gave Jake his first haircut, and where else better to show it off??? I had wanted to post pics before, but then Lily got too sick. I think he looks very handsome! I will post pics as soon as I can get on the site to post. Took us 3 1/2 hours with breaks here and there, he had a ton of hair!!! In fact, I weighed him before and after. He went from 4 lbs. 8 oz. to 4 lbs. 4 oz. lol. We still have a little trimming up to do to even it out here and there, but I'm happy with his cut, and he seems much cooler. My third reason for coming back is......... I want to join the Whack Job Club!!!!!!!

I will be posting again as soon as I'm activated. Again, thank you all so much for EVERYTHING!!!

Selina

Oh Selina - I'm so glad you decided not to leave us!!!! I'm lookin forward to seeing handsome Jake's new hair do!! Can you and hubby come to my house and do Otis and Oliver? They do not behave for Mommy when it comes to "beauty shop" time.:D

I'm back with my new name and finally activated so I can post now. I will post the pics of Jake's new haircut later. I'm trying to catch up on some things around the house, and I have to work tonight. Will post the pics from there if it's not too busy.

Thank you again to everyone!
Selina

YAY!!!! Mega-nuts and other troublemakers be d*mned!!!:D

Did I say Jake behaved?? lol He was very wiggly and didn't want to hold still at all. We gave him treats and breaks, and once he finally started to get tired, it got easier. We now know that the next time, we'll wait until a weekend when he's good and tired and then do it because he's much more cooperative that way.

Welcome back! Yea!!!!! :D

I am new to this whole fiasco. I am so sorry for your loss Selina, Lily was so lucky to have a Mommy like you, some Mommies would give up, of course that doesn't include YT Mommy's, we're a special breed, but you really went to extra mile and you did it with strength, dignity and grace. I don't know what was said to you but i'm also you had to experience the very worst side of humanity, the intolerable cruelty. I deal with it everyday at work, i'm practically immune to it anymore, except from what i've read regarding your situation, i was ibeside myself with anger!!! I hope whoever pm'ed you has come to realize that that type of behavior will not be tolerated around here and nor is it welcome. YT'ers are a strong community of individuals and no one can break us. Please let me know if you need anything! we are so glad to have you back, we are all blessed to know you and your strength of character!

Welcome back!!

I haven't been on YT very long, but I really love it here. So far everyone has been wonderful, but I know that there are always the "nay-sayers". I belong to other BBs and have read many hurtful comments. I hope that your return is a happy one.

welcome back selina... :thumbup: :thumbup: the girl with the heart of gold
