My thoughts, prayers and tears are with you and Lady today. Please tell her to say hello to my boys Chief and Bandit and tell them we miss them so.

Not so good. I just can't seem to get over this. She did come home yesterday, in an urn. We buried her out with the other dogs we have lost.

 

I at least have a place to go and talk to her, now. I miss her so much.

 

She was the best dog I ever had. I love her so much. I hope it gets better.

 

Thanks for asking.

"I Stood By Your Bed Last Night"

 

I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.

I could see that you were crying, You found it hard to sleep.

 

I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear,

"It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."

 

I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea,

You were thinking of the many times your hands reached out to me.

 

I was with you at the shops today, Your arms were getting sore.

I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.

 

I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care.

I want to reassure you that I'm not lying there.

 

I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.

I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "it's me."

 

You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.

I tried so hard to let you know that I was standing there.

 

It's possible for me to be so near you everyday.

To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."

 

You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew ...

In the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.

 

The day is almost over... I smile and watch you yawning

and say "goodnight, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."

 

And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,

I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.

 

I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see.

Be patient, live your journey out ... then come home to be with me.

It will get better, in time. They do leave such a void when they go. My Twiga has been gone a little over 3 weeks now, and I miss her terribly, from waking up in the morning and not being able to pet her and let her out into the yard, until bedtime, when she used to come running for her goodnight treat. I'm not over it yet, but it is a little less painful most days. It has helped some to read many of the posts here, and to see that a lot of other people have had many of the same feelings and emotions on losing their friends.

The first walk without her was almost unbearably sad, remembering how excited she always was to go, but I felt I needed to take my other dog, a long-haired white mix, who took Twiga under his wing when she was adopted as a very shy, timid dog 7 and 1/2 years ago. They were constant companions ever since, and he really helped her to feel secure in her new surroundings. Now it is still very lonely going without her, but we both look forward to our walks, and Twiga's memory is a constant companion.

I don't have any easy advice to make things better, but hopefully all of the concern and prayers for Lady will help some.

I am so sorry you are going through this. I was crying this morning thinking of Chad, it's been almost 3 weeks. The pain does get better, but I don't believe it ever goes away. I'll continue to keep you in my thoughts.

I think you'll find some days are easier than others. Jessica has been gone since September and I still cry because I miss her so much. She sounds like you hound, one who's personality was larger than life.
