[Loca Misdiagnosed?]

Miracle vs misdiagnosis........ Don't care what it is called, just as long as it is. I am also thinking we should all grab a bottle of wine and dance on a table as soon as we find out for certain "NO CANCER!".

[Echo Is At The Bridge]

I am very sorry for the loss of your Echo. Do you have a picture you could post? Although it is obvious that she was a true beauty, on the inside as well as the outside.

[Cullen's Gone]

Run fast and freeat the bridge Cullen, until you can be with your family again. Also, please send your family a sign soon that you are ok.

Continuing the chanting.

[Please Keep Mr. Toby In Your Prayers Next Week]

Lots of prayers for Mr Toby (and the rest of your pack).

[He Went Quietly Tonight.. Buycut]

Sending lots of hugs. What wonderful memories you have of BuyCut. Also, BuyCut and Batman won't have to look hard for the best sunny spots for a proper snooze - my Chester would have found them all a long time ago. I know he wouldn't mind sharing, especially if the others enjoyed squirrel chasing and cat barking as much as he did.

[Two Days After Otis Went To The Bridge]

Been there, done that, have the the guilt-shirt for it. The vet and the specialist told me that surgery for Polly's laryngeal paralysis would greatly improve her quality of life. She was my baby-girl so I agreed. I had no idea when I signed the consent that I was going to put my girl through all the circles of hades and back. When she left for the bridge 10 months later, I couldn't decide if I was more relieved it was finally over or devastated it was finally over. It took a long time to get past the sensation that someone had gouged my lungs out of my chest using a dull spoon and then poured acid into the hole.

 

However, Polly has been gone 6 years. When I think of her now, it is always with a smile. About the time she stole my snooty-know-it-all relative's corned beef sandwich. Or the way she could snatch a racquetball out of mid-air after flying across the yard. Or scamming Chester out of his dog chow by pretending a cat was outside. Or especially how she would give dh serious grief for sitting in HER chair when she was ready to go nite-nite. One thing that has helped is knowing she is still here. How else can I explain having a greyhound (Sirocco) that acts like a brittany spaniel (Polly)?

 

Another thing that helped is knowing that grief comes in layers. Each layer had to be worked through in my own way and my own time before I could move on to the next. Until one day, I realized that my memories of her sweet, loving, rotten, stinking and ornery ways had replaced the ones of her gasping for air.

 

Please give yourself a break. You made the decisions you did out of love. No one can ever do better than that.
