Mystella

I am so sorry Mary!

Aww Karen, I am so sorry We will see you later Clandro

Awwww I remember how much alike I always thought Stella and Her Royal Whineness Aria were and despite changing your monniker you are still A's mom to me I don't have any helpful advice because it hasn't gotten any easier for me yet either but we have to remember how very very lucky we are that we got the opportunity to love such special pupcakes. And lucky to have a place like GT where everyone understands.

I am so sorry Tom we WILL see you later Ember until then, give Stelly a kiss for me and we will be here for your daddy, happy to hear all the wonderful stories about you that he has.

Oh Tam's, I just saw this now, I am so sorry You and Festus were a great gift to each other , you saw each other through so much - and the great pain is there because there was, no make that is, great love. We WILL see you later Festus

Oh Nancy I am so sorry. I wish I had something more @#$# helpful to say, but we know there isn't anything. You know without ever meeting you I love you and Bill and your gang and my heart breaks for all you have had to endure this year. We WILL see you later big guy, Stelly can apologize to you in person now for leaving you off the card a couple years ago

Oh Nancy Please give that sweet boy a gentle kiss on the snout from me and a big fat hug for you and Bill I am so sorry.

Oh Chrissy You know I loved the Specktacular one and love you too. I wish I could think of a thing to say that would help, but like you pointed out to me not too long ago, sometimes a cyber hug is all you can do Specky, we WILL see you later, but darn sure will miss you in the meantime.

Judy, when Stella crossed the bridge it was sudden and unexpected too and I wasn't able to be with her and I know how much that can weigh on you don't doubt for one second that Andy knew how much you loved him!! We will see you later Andy.

We WILL see you later Joe but until then :grouphugs to your family who miss you so much

I am so sorry Pat.

Oh Karen I am so sorry. It seems just a blink ago that you were getting her and we were joking about having the same named puppers. I know my Stella will be honoured to greet your sweet girl and keep her company till the 'later' in See you Later comes about. In the meantime know that I'm thinking of you and sending big hugs your way.

A stunning portrait of our much missed hero

I went through all these options with Stell for her front foot. She absolutely freaked with the e-collar, falling over and banging into things, so I tried to find a bite not but there werent any in our area, so I tried the rolled towel thing, didn't work for a front foot on a pretzel dog. Finally what worked was a muzzle duct taped, with holes in it, I couldn't find a stool guard in time, and me trying to be home as much as possible because I was nervous leaving her alone like this. I also cut the foot and leg out of about a million pairs of panty hose and would spray them with bitter apple spray, let dry then put them on her and tape up around her knee, I figured they still let air in and the dried bitter apple spray slightly discouraged licking. It was very stressful so to you

Thanks guys I really appreciate it. Beth I can't believe you remember that!!! 'Tellla' was actually Faith's first english word

I am so sorry

See you later sweet Coby

Aww Bon, I am so sorry. I think these greys are wise beyond our understanding, they pick their time. Coby waited till you were married, till you had someone else to take care of you, before he let you know he is ready to go.

I have no wisdom or advice on this but wanted to chime in with a little hug for Tip and you of course.

Oh Steph I am so sorry, has it really been that long (and that short) already? I remember Nelly 'coming home' and how shocked we all were with the puppy count - 9 !!!! We will see you later Mama

thanks for hug i mis my stella in heaven i like this computer place because it has lots of doggy greyhound picturees faith 9dgsjadgsdhgfheg u wrghsfdhgfuhfugdcugsftydgfcudscydfgydyfduyfycgchxjcbxckzxzkxknv,fnncjkcxklkBk,xjxcjkchdkhhcf (she says that part is a 'secret message' only for Stella to see)

Thank you everyone, it means so very very much to me. I come here often right now and read this thread, it makes me cry but also makes me feel better if that makes any sense at all. I would send you pms to let you know how much your individual posts have moved me, but my mailbox has temporarily shrunk and I can't so please know that I have read all your messages and am so grateful. Tonight I am going to read them with Faith, I think it will make her feel a bit better too.

That was a beautiful tribute, he left with love and that was the best gift you could have given.

Many prayers and hugs on the way to you. I just lost my sweet girl suddenly and trust me, GT is a fantastic place to be when you are hurting because everyone here understands and are ready with a hug. And we never get tired of hearing stories of our beloved Greys.

Aww, Nalian, I am so sorry, hugs to you and Veda I just saw this thread and I apologize for being so late. My confession is I rarely come in to Remembrance because it hurts so much, but I know now how much it helps to have those hugs and comfort from your friends. Your Roo stories always made me laugh. We will see you later Roo.
