CaliforniaGreys Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I don't think I usually dream, and if I do, I don't remember them. And I have never had one of my dogs who have passed away come to me in a dream. I wish I had but it just never happened. And I also consider myself to be a fairly level headed person. Something happened yesterday which caused me to think about Misty's last trip to the vet. As I was getting Wayne and Ekko out of the car, the vet tech was helping Misty out which was easiest for her. As she was taking her out, she was checking to see if she was dehydrated and I remember saying to her I didn't think she was. The worst guilt came over me and I was having a hard time yesterday thinking that maybe she was and I didn't know it. I never thought I would miss something like that, but I started to question myself. I went to bed and was thinking about Lily (Lilysmom's girl) and fell asleep. I woke up in the middle of the night and I had had a dream about Misty. I can not remember the details about that dream, as hard as I've tried, but I do know that when I woke up from the dream, I knew that I hadn't missed dehydration and I felt such a release of guilt. I remember saying thank you and then drifting back to sleep. Thank you so much Misty, you knew I needed you Quote Missing my little Misty who took a huge piece of my heart with her on 5/2/09, and Ekko, on 6/28/12 For the sick, the lost, and the homeless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBooMama Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Oh Claudia. I have so many guilt related thoughts about BooBoo- ignoring her or telling her to be quite when she whined, thinking she was just being demanding for her walk, a cookie, etc. and simply taking her out or giving her a treat. Could she have been in pain already back then? months before she began to limp? Whenever those thoughts enter my head I remember her happy little face when we took those long drives to her favorite places that last week of her life. She forgave me. Misty WAS telling you is was OK- you did not fail her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dmona Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Claudia, I think we all question ourselves when this happens...I know I have with my Kelsey who left us on 6/4/10. I think did I do something to cause her pain like let her run and she fell or just any number of things. I'm glad Misty "let you know" that you didn't let her down. We just can't beat ourselves up. Take care. Dianne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PhillyPups Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Oh Claudia, I am sitting here with a bittersweet feeling and a smile on my lips. Sweet Misty always knows what you need, and you always know what she needed and gave it to her. Some just live deep in our bones and we feel them. I always feel such a comfort when they visit to let us know all is well and we are loved unconditionally as only a dogs heart can love.

djsgreys Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Claudia, Misty had the very best of everything - the best mom, the best care - that any hound could ever imagine.

Guest Heehoo Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) Sometimes they just do that. She was a very wise lil girl & she knew you had been busy lately & probably not taking the time to care for YOU vs everyone else. So she decided to take it upon herself to send you a message & since you're italian & you don't listen to some of us when we tell you something (I love you myfriend) then she decided to come to you in a dream while you were sitting still. Remember the butterfly from the other day, maybe that was really her instead of Gogh. It did have some blue on it.

Guest Energy11 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I believe those who pass DO come to you in dreams. My Bob did a few times, shortly after he died. I KNOW Misty was coming to you, to let you know she is OK, and so you could get rid of your guilt. Sending you all the love we can! Dee, Curfew, Goldie, Oakly, Staggerlee and Cari.

Magdalyn58 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Thank you sweet Misty for giving Claudia the reassurance she needed, when she needed it the most. I know how awful it feels to have doubts and guilt over that final visit to the vet. I have them myself over Sophie. I do whatever I can to prevent those thoughts from creeping into my conscious mind, because they are so painful. Good girl, Angel Misty, for taking care of your mommy.

racindog Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 I have often marvelled how even death is not powerful enough to keep them from looking after us and giving us what we need. They don't need an earth suit to do that. In fact from what I understand they are more powerful in the spirit world. She was clearly looking out for you- as she will continue to do!
