Diane4114 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 I'm posting for Laurie ( Beltane) and her husband Michael. Today I received another email, and was asked to post here, as they are just devastated.This time from Laurie ( Beltane here) and Michael that today their beloved Nellie would be crossing the bridge to join so many others. They had received the devastating news just 2 weeks ago that she had osteo and her time was coming. Today they made the hardest and most loving decision, to let Nellie be whole again and pain free. She was their 3rd failed foster. A little white girl with a big personality. When Laurie would get up for an early morning stroll to the pond, Nellie was the one who would be up to join her, the others in GH fashion would want to sleep in. She and her sister Winter joined Laurie and Michael on their first Dewey trip. She was so intrigued by the ocean, not wanting to leave. She had to carried away by Michael! She had just turned 7 in July and lived with them for 3 short years. This is never easy, but losing your first is the hardest. I have pictures to post...but the site is not co-operating. Run free sweet Nellie. I'm sure Austin was there to greet you.

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Snowy8 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 (edited) Laurie & Michael I am so sorry for your loss of Nellie. Bless your hearts... Nellie is running pain free at the bridge, having fun chasing Beanie probably, but never catching him. When we close our eyes, we can see our pups & kitters at the bridge running pain free & having the biggest time...but mainly pain free! Nellie will live forever, peacefully, snuggled in your hearts knowing that your purposely failed fostering just for her. She is forever grateful for that deed.
