| My baby Bella is gone Last Thurs. 8/13 I had to put the love of my life my 14yr. old teacup yorkie to sleep. She had been having neurological issues and they thought it may be a brain tumor but wasn't sure. She had 7 seizures in one day and couldn't walk. I knew it was time. The loss is worse than when my dad died last year. It's unbearable pain. I thought I was preparing myself little by little but it did not help. Thanks to all that I have received advice over the years since joining this site. There are so many wonderful yorkie people on here! One day I hope I will be able to love another yorkie-not as much as my baby but close to that. |

| I am so sorry for your loss. I know from experience that there is nothing that can heal the pain you are feeling. Just remember that Bella will be waiting for you at Rainbow Bridge.

| I am so sorry for your loss!! She looks like she was such a wonderful baby ♥♥♥ It hurts to let them go ( I know from experience) but they are so much happier to be pain free and as maxdog said will be waiting for you at the Bridge. She will be playing with all our lost furbutts waiting on us. Bless you for loving her for 14 years. |

| I'm deeply sorry for your loss. After I lost my first Yorkie, I never thought I'd love another little one like her. Then our precious angel, Ashley, came into our lives and a short time later, so did her two sisters, and I realized how wrong I was. I lost Ashley close to her seventeenth birthday, and I also tried to prepare myself for losing her since time was not on our side. I failed miserably at it, and the loss is still great. I will always miss Ashley and her sisters, but a powerful love remains that will always be a part of me. Almost two years Katie joined our family, and we are so in love with her. She has done so much to lift our spirits, to bring back the laughter to our home. Loving Katie doesn't change how much we love our little ones at the Rainbow Bridge. Each little one is different, but we loved every one of our little girls with every core of our being. I hope someday you will share your love with another little one. I've posted this before. I found it when I was trying to cope with Ashley's loss. I hope it brings you comfort like it did for me. Living Love If you ever love an animal, there are three days in your life you will always remember... The first is a day, blessed with happiness, when you bring home your young new friend. You may have spent weeks deciding on a breed. You may have asked numerous opinions of many vets, or done long research in finding a breeder. Or, perhaps in a fleeting moment, you may have just chosen that silly looking mutt in a shelter--simply because something in its eyes reached your heart. But when you bring that chosen pet home, and watch it explore, and claim its special place in your hall or front room--and when you feel it brush against you for the first time--it instills a feeling of pure love you will carry with you through the many years to come. The second day will occur eight or nine or ten years later. It will be a day like any other. Routine and unexceptional. But, for a surprising instant, you will look at your long-time friend and see age where you once saw youth. You will see slow deliberate steps where you once saw energy. And you will see sleep where you once saw activity. So you will begin to adjust your friend's diet--and you may add a pill or two to her food. And you may feel a growing fear deep within yourself, which bodes of a coming emptiness. And you will feel this uneasy feeling, on and off, until the third day finally arrives. And on this day--if your friend and God have not decided for you, then you will be faced with making a decision of your own--on behalf of your lifelong friend, and with the guidance of your own deepest Spirit. But whichever way your friend eventually leaves you---you will feel as alone as a single star in the dark night. If you are wise, you will let the tears flow as freely and as often as they must. And if you are typical, you will find that not many in your circle of family or friends will be able to understand your grief, or comfort you. But if you are true to the love of the pet you cherished through the many joy-filled years, you may find that a soul--a bit smaller in size than your own---seems to walk with you, at times, during the lonely days to come. And at moments when you least expect anything out of the ordinary to happen, you may feel something brush against your leg--very very lightly. And looking down at the place where your dear, perhaps dearest, friend used to lay---you will remember those three significant days. The memory will most likely be painful, and leave an ache in your heart---As time passes the ache will come and go as it has a life of its own. You will both reject it and embrace it, and it may confuse you. If you reject it, it will depress you. If you embrace it, it will deepen you. Either way, it will still be an ache. But there will be, I assure you, a fourth day when---along with the memory of your pet---and piercing through the heaviness in your heart---there will come a realization that belongs only to you. It will be as unique and strong as our relationship with each animal we have loved, and lost. This realization takes the form of a Living Love---like the heavenly scent of a rose that remains after the petals have wilted, this love will remain and grow--and be there for us to remember. It is a love we have earned. It is the legacy our pets leave us when they go. And it is a gift we may keep with us as long as we live. It is a love which is ours alone. And until we ourselves leave, perhaps to join our beloved pets--it is a love that we will always possess. ~ Written by Martin Scot Kosins ~ Author of "Maya's First Rose"

| I hate reading this. Am so sorry, honey. I know you are devastated and will be for a long, long time to come. Can only tell you we know the kind of pain you feel and will be here for you, praying and sending caring thoughts. RIP, little Bella. The sound of your footsteps and bark, your loving presence and sweet face will be sorely missed and forever loved, Little One. Once you've rested, get to that Rainbow Bridge and meet my Scotty and Jilly and ya'll wait there for us all. We'll be there one day.

| Thank you so much for all of your sweet comments. Lisa the living loved story you posted is so relatable and so true for what I have experienced. I loved all 4lbs. of my baby and that reminded me of the days of feeding her with food in a syringe she was so tiny. I must have 20 pictures all over my house as I don't have other family. I just received her ashes today and the tears haven't stopped. I thank everyone again for your support. |

| Your post is so sad and bless you for giving your little one a wonderful home. I lost my dear Keally a similar way from a brain tumor. She had IBD all her life so she had to be on meds which contributed to her death. I am in tears seeing what you had to go through and seizures are an awful thing to see. Take care of and treasure those great memories you had of her she will always be in your heart. Susan |
