Guest VelvetEars Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 You gave him everything, and he returned it with a love as deep and strong. He will always be with you. I'm sorry you weren't able to have more time with him. There's never enough time, is there? I mailed Jane's harness today before I got the news. I'm sorry it didn't get there in time. But where he is, he won't need help walking or standing. He's whole and running with the wind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The love continues; therefore, the relationship continues. The work of grief is to reconcile and redeem life to a different love relationship. ~ W Scott Lineberry Always Greyhounds Home Boarding and Greyhounds With Love House Sitting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forevermybabies Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 Thank you guys. I can't sleep. I'm lost. I have to get the kids up in an hour. I don't know what's worse. Dealing with my own grief, or dealing with theirs. Knowing that I have to go on with my day, or telling them that they must go on with theirs. My mom called me last night at around midnight. (Well, she'd been calling all night, but I finally answered at midnight.) She's also devastated. We just cried together. My family all loved him so much. I'd never met another boy like him. I never will. Quote Tami, Nikki & Gypsy (non-greyhounds, but still pretty good dogs.)
