Oh no. I am so sorry, I can only imagine the emotional stress you are going through right now. Please know that she loves you and you were her Mommy and you are a very good Mommy. You gave her a warm home, good food and lots and lots of love and care. In time you feel better. You said you are going to put your name on a list for another Rescued Yorkie, well, maybe you should start to do that, I know Annie would be so proud of you to help another little one in need. We are here for you :( |
I have just read through the whole thread and am in tears. Poor little Annie. How can people be so cruel? I hope her previous owners rot in hell.:mad: She is very blessed to have found you to give her the love she deserves, even if for only a short while. Your decision is probably the right one, although painful for you. You are a very brave and caring person. I will pray that her crossing to rainbow bridge is peaceful, having known love at last, and that your dear heart will heal. Love and hugs to you. |
Nothing takes away the pain, but in time it will become less severe. Perhaps the thought of another rescue dog might help you focus in a different direction and there for alleviate the pain ... if just for a while. I was thinking about how you named her Orphan Annie ... Perhaps you can begin a rescue operation with the name of Annie's Orphans. I am so so sorry ..... |
Sorry, I posted and did not see that you had come back from the vet. I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Annie. My heart goes out to you. May she rest in peace and I hope you recover from the hurt you are feeling now. Just know that she passed having known love and happiness. My thoughts are with you. |
i'm am so so sorry about Annie. You were the most wonderful person to come in to her life and you showed her so much love. I'm sure she was happy being with you even if it was only for a short time. When she left this world she left it knowing love and that made it all worth it. RIP little orphan annie :rbyorkie: |
Jamie, I'm crying with you... and I too am so proud of you. You and Orphan Annie was destined to meet. She came to you to reopen your heart and home to others like her. And you gave her peace and comfort in her last days that she has never had.. She felt no fear or pain as she layed safely in your arms as you both said to each other "See you in Heaven". Annie will live forever in your heart and will be by your side as you care for others to come. God Bless You |
Jamie, there are no words except we understand the pain in your heart. It is an extremely difficult decision to make and sending you a link http://www.indigo.org/rainbowbridge_ver2.html to help you through this day. It is a beautiful testament to the Rainbow Bridge, and created by a wonderful woman. Thank you is not enough for your friend who initially rescued Annie, and then she was placed in your loving arms. Warmly, Deborah PS Charlie is my 10 yo. rescue pup from United Yorkie Rescue who came to live with me in April 2007. |
Thank you to everyone for their kind words. When I think I can't bear the pain anymore, reading through the postings gives me temporary solace. I can't wait until time helps eliminate the heaviness I feel in my heart and the kicked in the stomach feeling I have in my gut. That rainbow bridge poem was beautiful ... thanks for sharing. I placed a thread opening my home up to another rescued Yorkie here: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=107688 So far my home is still filled with the memory of Annie. It is too hard to move any of her belongings or put any of them away. I never dreamed I could get attached to a little dog so quickly in such a short period of time. The pain I'm feeling is as if she had been with me since she was a pup. Does anyone have any recommendations for alleviating the pain. I would love to hear them. |
Does anyone have any advice on how to make yourself feel better after losing your pet. I barely slept last night and find myself weeping uncontrollably every few hours. I don't even have the motivation to jump in the shower or eat. I took some sleeping pills last night to try to escape from the pain but it didn't work very well. I'm trying to focus my energy on opening my home to a new Yorkie but that doesn't make me feel that much better. My sister sent over her little poodle last night to keep me company, but I keep comparing her to Annie and feeling even more sad. I wish I could fast forward time so I could alleviate some of this pain in my heart. Before Annie came into my life I would have laughed at anyone getting so worked up over the death of a dog. Now I'm not sure what to do with myself because I'm so broken up. |
Jamie, I understand completely the pain you are feeling. (As, sadly, do many here). Know that time will ease the pain, and allow yourself time to grieve. I'm glad you found YT because one of the hardest things about losing a pet is how little people around you seem to take notice. Here you will find many who understand, sympathize and care. I've been following your thread about Annie since the beginning and it is obvious that you gave her the best days of her life. She went to the rainbow bridge knowing someone who loves her and made it easy for her. You are her angel and she loves you for it. |
Jamie, I truly do not believe that you can hide from the pain, for it is a symbol of the love that you had for one another. In time it will ease, but you will always feel that little tug at your heart at the mere mention of her name. I am so sorry that you are hurting and I know how difficult this time will be, but please be sure to know that we are here for you and if we could ... {{ hugs }} would be coming through these computers. {{ hugs to you }}} from all of us here..... |
Im so sorry to hear about Annie, RIP sweet baby.Im so glad she got to show you what you was missing in life a sweet sweet fur-baby. I hope you get another Yorkie to love. |
Oh my, I had to get up and walk away from this for a minute to collect myself. Jamie I am so sorry you are going through so much heartbreaking pain right now :hug: But just think of how much Sweet Annie loves you for all you did for her. She is so lucky to have found you and to be loved so much, even if it was just a short time. You truly are her angel. You took her away from her pain and suffering, but showed her tremendous amounts of love and kindness to leave with. :hug: |
Have you seen this fella? I know you said you wanted a female, but this guy really needs a good home? http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=105052 |
Hi, It's Sunday morning and I'm starting to feel a bit better. I actually feel like showering today and getting out of the house. There is still the "kicked in the stomach" feeling in my tummy, but it is not as painful today. Thank your for your kind words of support and understanding regarding losing Annie. I have to say that my little girl, Hannah, has shown a maturity and kindness that I have not seen in her before. (This is the first time we have lost a pet.) Amidst my crying, she comes up to me and rubs my knee and tells me I'm going to be okay. Hannah has been trying to take care of me by bringing me tissues and trying to pamper me. This terrible situation of losing Annie has brought my daughter and I even closer. I am blessed to have such a wonderful little girl. TLC - I'll be privately messaging the gentleman in New York who has the eight-year-old little boy he is looking to rehome. As well, I love your profile tagline: "You Won't Change the World by Saving One Animal..BUT...You Will Change the World for that One" |
