I still can't believe she's gone...
 

It has been over a month since She-Ra passed away. It still feels like a bad dream. Every Wed. I have a bad day, I guess that since she passed on that day, I think of it more. I visit her grave daily, I know she isn't there, but still I go. Everyone says, It will get better, just wait. But when does it?? I haven't hurt this bad since 1995, that is when my best friend died in a car accident. I still "hurt" over his loss. She-Ra was a one of a kind girl. She loved life and everyone in it. She didn't know what a stranger was. Always a mother hen to the puppies she was around. When we got Harley, she mothered him so much, he would hide from her! There are so many good memories, but all I keep thinking is how I should've been a better mom, I should've took her to a different vet as soon as I felt something wasn't right. I live with that regret everyday. It isn't fair. She shouldn't have had to go so soon. I have never loved a dog like I loved her, she was like one of my daughters. Yesterday, I took her sweater and was putting it in my curio, with her collar, and I found little She-Ra hairs in it. Oh how I miss cleaning the bathtub after she got a bath, there was always little black hairs in the drain. Then she would jump out a go crazy in the bathroom, rubbing on anything that would dry her. She was a special dog, never bite or snapped at anyone. Loved my girls and tolerated anything. Her favorite spot at night was on daddy's lap, and bedtime at my feet. Sometimes, I can even feel her jump up on the bed...

Sorry this is so long. Thanks for reading.

Amanda

I feel so sorry for you. Dezi is my first pet and I've had her for 1 month and I don't know what I would do without her. I am so sorry for your loss.

She Ra
 

Sometimes we only get one extra special Yorkie in our life...I have enjoyed and loved all of mine, but I have never had another like my little KC...they were the best of the best.
Best wishes

Oh gosh I am so sorry Amanda, I cannot imagine how you feel, I have 2 too but my maddy is one of a kind.. she's a momma's girl , she sleeps on my head or sometimes we sleep back to back EVERY NITE! I cannot go to bed w/ out her & to think one night I will, well I just cannot imagine life w/ out her... she is my joy I love Gizmo too but they are both so different! I hope god gives you the strength to get through this.

It's rather ironic that we adopt pets, knowing that they will cross Rainbow Bridge and that it will be so traumatic for the ones they leave behind.

But we do it because they bring so much joy and love to our lives. We treat them as well as we treat our own children, and in return they give us unconditional love and loyalty.

I am so sorry for your loss. She-Ra was loved and treasured, and I can't begin to feel the pain that you feel over her passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you. :(

It's hard to lose our babies, but what a wonderul well loved life she obviously lived.

:( You made me teary eyed. Especially about the part where you still find her hair. I hope some of the hurt begins to dissappear soon. :animal-pa

A year after my Shelby died, I found her brush. I had put it away and forgotten about it, so I can relate to finding the hair. It DOES get easier, but even now (its been 3 years), I can get sad thinking about her.
You were a good mom, focus on the happy memories.

I am so sorry that you are still having a hard time! I have never had to go through it so I dont really have any advice! Just take care of yourself and just know that she is still living in your heart!

I'm so sorry, Amanda. I know exactly how you feel. We lost our "Maggie" last September, and I still feel sad, but it does get a little easier with each passing day. I pray for you to find peace. Don't beat yourself up about what you might have done different. Just keep talking/writing about it when you feel the need. That will help you.
Take care,

Thanks guys. I tried to fill the void with another puppy...but it didn't work. I think it was too soon. We are going to try this summer to get a little girl, but none will be She-Ra.


I pray that the hurt will ease. I try to stay busy, the only time I really get sad is when I am all alone, or awake at night. It was always the quiet time when she was right beside me looking at me with those beautiful eyes. She loved to sit with me at the computer or lay right beside my feet. She was literally my shadow!! If I wasn't paying attention, I'd trip right over her. I still look down to make sure. I swear some nights I can hear her barking, and then the faint jingle of a tag. It just lets me know that she is still here and still watching out for us. If God would allow, I'd want her as my gaurdian angel.

Amanda - I understand how hard it is right now for you, your pain is overwhelming now. Please know you are in our thoughts! We will always help you remember She-ra at her best - she was so precious and beautiful. :hug:

:cry: :love: It does get some better. But, There will never be another Jesse in my life...His mom and dad are retired and I cannot even try for another one of his line. I too got another puppy but I just was not being fair to her. She is so beautiful but, I just still need to get over Jesse. He has been dead over a year and right now, I am sitting here crying over his death..
Pat was the person whose stud sired him and I loved that sire. And, then his son became my heart and soul. But, no more and I grieve every day for him..I do love others but well, just not like Jesse..

It does get some better with time. I know it took a long time for me not hear hear a tiny little bark from my one boy. He has been sadly missed and will always have that special place in our heart.

cant imagine what your going through.. i will be thinking about you ....
you take care ok...we are all here for you sweetie..i just cry thinking about it.

I am soo sorry , i dont know what to say to ease your pain. I know how i would feel if i lost my Rosi, my thoughts are with you !

Amanda, I am so sorry for the pain you are feeling. You ask when it gets better....that is different for every person. We found a bow of Bandit's under my son's bed with hair in it, a month after he passed. I totally lost it! Think back to when you lost your best friend in 1995, at first he was all you thought of, I'm sure. And you never thought you'd get better. Now, you are going through the same exact thing again! I've always said that the pain does not lessen, but you go on with your life and you think about the person or the loss less often...it no longer is the main focus of your life. But when you do stop to think about it, it hurts just as much. That is what I've found with all of the losses I've gone through. But, I truly believe in my heart that NO ONE goes before their time. Don't second guess what you did, I truly believe that it was She-ra's time and no matter what you did it would have had the same outcome. Think of people or pets who survive incredible circumstances, I believe it's because it was not their time to go. Others have a simple accident or illness and they die, I believe it's because their time on earth is finished. Some just seem to finish way sooner than others! I will pray for you, that your pain will ease and that you will find comfort in your memories. Take Care!

I am hurting also
 

I lost my little girl 3 weeks and 2 days ago. I sleep with one of her favorite toys. She was only 8 and a half and nothing could be done. One of the things I miss most about her wa when she would curl up to sleep with me she would let out a satisfying sigh. How I miss that. The one I feel sadest for is Jazmine the other yorkie she is beside herself. Now she does not have her friend she is lonely during the day as wife and I both work. I miss my Chloe. Thanks for allowing me to vent. Jim

Awwww...I sure do know the feeling...the empiness...and no way around it.
I now have 7 Yorkies but most of all I still miss my Stormy Girl who I lost 3 years ago.

Amanda,

I'm so sorry for your loss of She-Ra. It will get better with time and she will be waiting for you at Rainbow Bridge.

I am so sorry for your loss.

I had to put our pom down a few years ago & that totally devastated me.
I swear I could feel him jumping on my bed or hear his tags jingling as he ran down the hall to greet me at the door.
It is hard, I still miss him even today but I know he is safe and pain free & that he is waiting for me to someday give me kisses again.

(((HUGS)))

Bless your heart. I know all too much that horrible hurt. It will be a yr. in May that we lost our little boy. I still sometimes think I hear him. I started crying the other morning when I woke up just from thinking about him and little Kayla licked my tears. Everytime I get agrivated at her tee tee everywhere I think how she tried to comfort me. THey are just like our kids. Hope you feel better and just take your time greiving. I think sometimes I don't have any tears left. Kayla has helped so much. Getting her was the best thing to do. Another dog never replaces the one you lost because they are all special but I know it has helped me so much.

I'm so sorry your pain is so heavy on your heart. Everyone grieves in their own way and their own timeframe. Your post shows how much you loved little She-Ra and she will be watching over you until you meet again. She was a lucky little girl to have had you for her Mommy. ((Hugs)).

I'm lost, isn't this thread two years old?

I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my Pixie just a week ago and I thought my heart would break when she died. My heart is still breaking. I was holding her in my arms and she passed away suddenly. It was one of the most awful experiences of my life. I wailed like a mad woman. But I loved her so much I just couldn't believe she was gone. And like you I blamed myself. Why didn't I notice there was something wrong? Why didn't I do more for her? Get her different treatment? Something, anything. But those questions just torture you and they will not bring her back.
It was your little baby's time to go too. Our pain is so raw yet but with the help of the wonderful people here, it will hopefully lessen in time.
Lots of love and hugs to you tonight xxxxx

so sorry, i know it doesnt help to hear but i hope you feel better when you think about the memories both of you shared. i lost my brother in 06 and i just cant imagine losing my baby!! best wishes

Iam so very sorry, My heart aches for your sadness:( Hugs to you:heart to
