Chris, your posts are charming and touching. Thank you for caring and sharing. I am so very sorry for your parting from Baxterboo. It hurts deep within and it takes time to find smiles before your tears. I said goodbye to my Beauty Girl in February and, even though she was truly ready to go, and it hurts at a cellular level, I am able now to recall fun and funny and sweet memories without collapsing in grief. I hope you find that soon, but it hasn’t been very long for you. Do you have other pets with you? I took care of a friends’ cat and that really helped. Please Chris, share your feelings and anything more with us – we’re here for, and with, you. {{HUG}} Toni -

@yvonne Oh, Yvonne, I am so, so sorry. I know what you mean – when my Beauty Girl left, a huge part of me went with her. But, a bigger part of her still lives within me: the fun and funny times, the sweet loving we shared….just so many kind and wonderful parts that made my life more complete. I hope you will find comfort in your memories of the times you and Bubba shared, but I know it takes time and that the grief comes from very deep within- a cellular pain, not something we can describe, but certainly feel. It hurts. Bad…. I am, again, so very sad and sorry, and I hope you will share more pictures of handsome Bubba, and stories of your lives together, and will let us know how you are coming along. Here is my {HUG}} for you ….. with my most sincere sympathy. Toni

How are you holding up today, Glenda? I find my thoughts and memories are bringing me smiles, but sometimes the tears just flow. Like Bubbles, my girl was just shy of 18 when we said goodbye in February, and she was quite unwell. So, we know we gave them the best lives we could and now we mourn their passing, and celebrate our lives together. Give little Kissinger extra love – it’s goof for you both. And here is a {{HUG}} for you both. Toni -

Suzanne, I said goodbye to my Beauty Girl February 24th and still feel deep grief and sob from time to time. She was sick and 18 years old, and it is so good to know she is at peace, but it takes as long as it takes to fully heal. We’ll always remember them, and love them, but it takes time for the empty feelings to be replaced by only joy. Let yourself express your feelings – I always think grief shared is grief halved, joy shared is joy doubled. Kissinger is mourning too, and you are both lucky to be there for each other. What a cutie he is! Would you like to join us June 7th at 7 EST on Zoom? If so, I’ll send you an invitation to log on. Let me know. Toni -

Hi Christine, and welcome to our caring community. I am very sorry for your parting from Luis. We know how deep the pain is and are here to share our support and understanding. We are long-time supporters of Canine Companions for Independence (CCI.org) and you can listen to our “Paw’d Cast” with them by clicking the purple microphone icon at the top right of this page under “Follow Us”. We are also adding other service animal organizations and if you would like to share yours with us, we will be happy to contact them to see if we can add them to our “Giving Back” section.
Will you be meeting another service dog? It won’t replace Luis but it will bring new love and joy into your home and heart. Please let us know how you are doing and what’s happening with you. If you would like to join a small gathering of our kind community members, we are meeting via Zoom Tuesday June 7th at 7 pm EST (4 Pacific). Let me know and I’ll send you an invitation.
Christine, if you would like to share some photos of Luis with us, we’d love to see them. You can also post a permanent memorial to him here: https://www.faithfulfriends.com/memorials/
I hope you do better each day, and find smiles before your tears. Toni
