RileysLegacy Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Today, March 12, would have been Riley's 13th birthday. It's been almost 2 years since he died, and it still doesn't seem real that's he's not here with me. I miss him so very much I decided to try making a short video (my first ever so it's not the best), if you feel like watching it here it is. Now I can't stop crying :weep Love you Ry Ry, I'll never forget you..... http://youtu.be/gmeT3mbuTj0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyAcresMom Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I'm so sorry Lucy. I feel the same about Domino. I can look at his picture and cry just like it was yesterday. It's so hard. {{{HUGS}}} Quote Sheila and COwww.greyacres.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnF Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Beautiful video - technology really helps us keep our best memories fresh. These anniversaries are always so hard to bear and there is nothing anyone can do other than to say to ourselves that we were so glad that they lived and shared their all too short lives with us.

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...

RileysLegacy Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 Aw, thank you so much everyone! It is nice to have a place where people understand. Most people I know would think I was nuts for still being sad about a dog that died so long ago. And yes, making that video reminded me how special Riley & Jabari's bond was. Jabari loves Puzzle & Legs too but it's not the same. Thanks again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyhead Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Riley was surely one of the most handsome greys ever. And he had to have lived one of the most pleasing lives possible for anyone of any species! Not to mention having a gorgeous, loving mom. Your video was a real treat for us, Lucy. Thanks for making it. Quote Mary with Jumper Jack (2/17/11) and angels Shane (PA's Busta Rime, 12/10/02 - 10/14/16) and Spencer (Dutch Laser, 11/25/00 - 3/29/13).
