Guest VelvetEars Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 I had two msgs from A tonight: I read all the postings about Trish, I thought I was doing good by not crying for the last few months, but the postings changed all that. I have been dreading this time, didn't know how I was going to handle it. I decided to get to work and just keep busy. It helped. I think Riley senses what is going on because he has been acting like a goofball today. Thank everyone for me for all the postings, tried to get in, but gt wouldn't let me in, or I just didn't know how to get in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisserGil Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 I have been pretty silent for the past year, however I do need to comment here.. Trish and I would talk on the phone a lot. She would call me just to chat.. I remember our discussions about her and Adrian and when he asked her to marry him. It was a long discussion and I told her that he was a man who loved her for who she was and thats a very important part of a relationship. I discussed with her how he was always there to help her and to just be there for her. I think she wanted assurance that she was doing the right thing. Adrian had been such a big part of her life and loved her very much. I am saddened that their time together was short but I know she is waiting for him. She loved her hounds and was a wonderful and caring person that loved everyone. She had a heart the size of the universe and she touched so many lives. I also feel sure her pain is gone and she is smiling down on all of us. I know its weird but her phone number is still programmed in my cell phone.. I just haven't gotten to the point of removing it. God gives us gifts everyday even if we don't realize it or not. Sometimes you don't know of that gift until its gone.. But some gifts live on in our lives and memories.. Just like Trish.. She will live on in our lives and memories forever...

Everytime I look at those sparkly brown eyes, I wonder how much of what he is now is what Trisha molded in to him. For now I can't read any posts about Flippy, I know that's selfish, but Trisha couldn't wait for Flippy to come home. Judy, we were some of the lucky ones who got to know Trisha in person.

queenwinniesmom Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 I remember last year at GIG, I bunch of us had gathered to do a roo for Trish. I think my Tess was the only one who actually rooed, but our hearts were with Trish. It's amazing how she touched the lives of so many people, her friends especially, but even those she had never met. I'm one of those who never talked to her in person or on the phone, but we'd PM'ed a few times about things we had in common. And I think she did that a lot, didn't she? She was always able to make someone feel like she was truly interested in what was going on with them. I wondered how she did it, and realized that it was a true gift. So even though I wasn't lucky enough to know her personally, I was in awe of her incredibly generous spirit. And I miss her too.

Xan Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 What I want to do with my memory of Trish is to celebrate who she was, and the child-like innocence she had. Her joy in simple things (Adrian, PINK! Barbies, her dogs, her art, her work with hospice patients and their families ... ) is like being presented with a pink sprinkled cupcake. As I look out at the dandelions on the green grass, I choose to be happy, and take in the pleasure that is all around me. Life can be far too short, so seize the day, Friends of Trish!

Pippin Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 OK, I was doing mostly ok reading through here until I got to this one. Bebe, I'm glad you're happy, little girl! Your mama-trish loved you very very much. But Peatie needed her to keep him company. I remember you, Trish. I remember your laugh, your enthusiasm, your unending ideas & energy. As long as you're remembered, you're never really gone. That means you'll be around for a long, long time. Hi Mommy Trish, It's me Bebe.

giadog Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Trish was thinking of getting a bulldog before she left; she and I discussed it occasionally. Now that we've sent Butkus up to be with her, she's got the best of the best. I take comfort in knowing she's got a hand on all of our bridge babies, and an eye on all of us.

TheFullHouse Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 I can't believe it's been two years. I know Trish would be happy knowing Bebe and Flippy are doing well. I haven't heard from Adrian for a very long time. I hope he is well also. I wonder if Trish is still visiting him? Missing you Trish. Bebe sends love and kisses and a big hug from me.

greytdecals Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 (edited) Yes, it has been 2 years that has gone by, not 1! I will never forget because I had my ruptured cerebral aneurysm on November 11, 2007 then I lost a very dear friend almost 5 months later to the very same thing that almost took my life. I still have her emails on my computer, can't bring myself to delete them. She loved Miss Nellie as much as we did...in fact, so much that she made Adrian drive her to Ohio so she could meet her in person! She brought joy to my life at times when I didn't know if I could ever feel joy again. Missing you, Trish. Edited to add that it is ironic that April is National Donate Life month...even in her death Trish continued to help others.

HopeForHounds Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 (edited) Isn't it wonderful how Trish still touches our lives? Some of you know that Nancy (GreyhoundNan) Daisy's Mom and I recently published a book "Are You Sitting Down?", I had the honour of writing Flippy's story. I've never faced something so difficult, yet at the same time so wonderful. Thanks to Xan I was able to locate and read Trish's blog, that was the difficult part. Then put Trish's own words into our book, that was the wonderful part. Now, Trish's excitement over Flippy and her journey as her FTH preadopter is recorded forever, a bittersweet accomplishment. I still have her emails on my computer, can't bring myself to delete them. She loved Miss Nellie as much as we did...in fact, so much that she made Adrian drive her to Ohio so she could meet her in person! She brought joy to my life at times when I didn't know if I could ever feel joy again. Missing you, Trish. Edited to add that it is ironic that April is National Donate Life month...even in her death Trish continued to help others. I understand Suzie, I still have Trish as my Facebook friend and can't remove her. I remember how much Trish loved Miss Nellie. She had the Hope for Hounds logo tattooed on her shoulder with Miss Nellie's name under it. We had the plans for our first auction under way when Miss Nellie left for the bridge, Trish asked me if we could hold the auction in her name.

krissn333 Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I will never forget the day that I came home from work to find the thread telling us all what had happened. I couldn't go to class that night. I never met Trish in person, but had always hoped to. She always had such a positive spirit, even though things were tough for her sometimes. I really admired her strength. With all of the Bridge angels that have arrived over the last couple of years, I'm sure she's got her hands full She is greatly missed.
