My Baby Tinkerbell
 

Tinkerbell passed away peacefully in my arms Monday morning. She survived 1.5 years with Insulinoma. My heart hurts so much, but I know I made the right decision. The vets said I did everything I could in my power, but her little body could not take it any longer. The seizures wouldn't stop and I had to let her go to heaven where she is pain free, and has the body of a puppy again.

I love you Tink, you will never know how much you made my life better. It was impossible to come home and ever be sad or upset, because you were a happy ray of sunshine jumping at my feet whenever I came home. You followed me around everywhere, my loyal little shadow and you loved "helping" me with chores.
I don't know who will scare those big scary deer out of our yard anymore, you were such a good guard dog and protected us :)

Our bond will never be broken, mommy and daddy loved you more than anything and we were so lucky to have you for 12 years. I can't wait to get to heaven and hold you in my arms again. I love you Tink, thank you for being mine.

I'm sorry for your loss. Tink will always be in your heart.

I'm so sorry for your loss, you had so many wonderful times with your little one and that's what will get you through your loss.

I am so sorry for your loss.....(((hugs)))...:(

I am so sorry for your loss! Tink is a beautiful little one! My heart and prayers go out to you and your husband. RIP little Tink

I'm sorry for your loss. RIP little one.

We are so very sorry for your loss of Tinkerbell. Enjoy the memories of your precious baby and know she loved you.

RIP little one. So sorry.

I am very sorry for your loss of your beautiful Tinkerbell. She was blessed to have such a wonderful mom who fought so hard for her.

Praying for your comfort and peace.

Tinkerbell, run free at the Rainbow Bridge.

I am so very sorry to hear of your sweet Tink's passing. She has been greeted by all of our beloved pets and one day we will be reunited. What a wonderful greeting that will be. :love:

I am so sorry to read about Tink. I have tears in my eyes she looks like my little Keally that passed away in 2010. Remember you were good parents to your baby and she knew you loved her very much. You will always treasure those memories of Tink. It is so hard to lose our babies but we must go on. My husband and I did get another and what a blessing from God. I hope Tink meets Keally in heaven and they can be free from pain . We will see them again. Take care of . Susan

Thank you all for your kind words. It's been 1 week today, and I can say I miss her more and more every day. The house is not the same without our little girl prancing everywhere, following our every step. I find myself forgetting and looking for her... mornings are the hardest. We had our little routines, but I know she's here with me in spirit. I miss her so much.

I have been thinking of you all week and reading your latest post put a lump in my throat for you. I don't know if you remember but around this time last year I was having anxiety over Sophie and you commented on my thread and from that point on I followed your journey with Tink.

I read all the updates you posted to my husband and even my aunt was always asking how Tink was doing. We were all so amazed at how wonderful of a dog mom you were and I don't doubt Tink knew it too.

I just wanted to let you know that we are all still thinking of you guys during this time. I hope as time passes you can replace some of the heartache with happy memories of her.

Thank you so much. I miss her so much, but we talk about her a lot, and try to think of all the happy memories. She was so important to us, and loved us so much. She now has a lovely resting place in our living room - her own little table :) Thank you for thinking of Tinky - she was one in a million, and I'm glad I was able to be her mommy :)

Just read this today. First reaction was one of great loss and sadness to know such a big love has run its course. Second was one of gratitude that she was able to have a peaceful trusting crossing over and that you had the time you needed to prepare. I think it's the hardest part, knowing that the time will come where we walk different paths for a bit until we are eventually reunited in the next world. I am truly sorry for your loss.

Here is Tinkys memorial. She has a very fancy urn with pictures on it. I miss her so much, but I am glad she has a lively resting place in our home. I miss you every day sugar plumb, and will always cherish our happy memories together :aimeeyork

Beautiful memorial, for such a beautiful little girl. Am I the only one that sheds tears for a pup I've never met? I'm sitting here with tears running down my face...I miss you Tink. I hope to meet you, someday...in heaven.

So sorry for the loss of your precious Tinkerbell. My heart goes out to you.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your sweet Tinkerbell. I just came to this page and found your heart breaking story about her loss. Again I'm very sorry. I hope the sweet memories you have of little Tink will help you through this painful time.

I am so very sorrry about Tink leaving......I know you are devastated....all we have is the hope that we will indeed meet with them again at Rainbow Bridge....until then, Tink is happy and healthy and running free, stopping occasionally during her play, to glance up to see if you have come for her yet.....Maybe Tink has already met up with my little Majic.....he is so loving and friendly, he will watch out for her and show her "the ropes"!!

What a lovely urn , the pictures are just beautiful and it will have pride of place in your home , a special memory for your baby.

I hope for some peace in your heart.I as well just put my boy down..I will never be the same..

So sorry for your loss:( Give you some hugs.

So sorry for your loss of sweet Tinkerbell. They are such a big part of our lives and leave a huge hole when we lose them!

Thank you all so much. I haven't been on here, I find it hard to come back to a place where I once wrote happy, silly things Tinky would do. I still have a very large hole in my heart. I pray to see her in my dreams, but what's funny is that my boyfriend has dreamt of her. (I recall reading that in order for you to start seeing them in dreams, etc you need to be in a place where you accept it, and are at peace - I am still very much lost without her...)
His first dream was her coming to him, sitting down and giving him a "love lick" on his arm. Then he woke up (She used to do this... sit next to us, look at us very lovingly, then give us "big long licks" that we called "love licks" because it meant she was happy)
The next dream... after Tinky passed I bought a stuffed animal yorkie to sleep with. It may sound strange, but it has helped. I lay in bed, and it sits next to me like Tinky used to.
Now... my boyfriend had a dream that he was in bed, then looked at the bedroom doorway, and the stuffed animal came into it like a real dog would. When he told me this, I started BAWLING. To me, this means that she was showing him that she's still around, and even that she associates the stuffed animal with herself??? It may sound crazy, but I miss her so much - and I know she would want to tell me she's ok.
Oh, little Tinkerbell - you are so loved, and we miss you so much.

I sent you a PM..

My heart breaks for you....

Reading about your boyfriend dreams I stared crying......... .......I also miss sooooooo much my beloved Bella.........:(

RIP - Tink

Oh my goodness, I have to tell you something!!! While I was reading your post (I haven't been on here in awhile either), Winston was begging to be picked up (out of the blue). I reached down and put him on my lap, he laid his head across my arm...looked lovingly up at me and gave me what you called a "love lick" which he normally does not do, now he's making little puppy noises, as if he's trying to talk to me. I think...I feel, like Tink wanted me to tell you she's ok, she loves you and misses you very much, but don't worry about her, she is there with you, every day, always...in your heart and soul. It was a little bit eerie, yet so touching I just had to share it with you. With tears in my eyes, I so hope you find peace with the memories of Tink, and never forget how very much she loves you. Sending love and hugs...Kathy
