MP_the4pack Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 13 yrs ago I lost my first greyhound. Not the first one I adopted. The first one that went to the Bridge. Topaz was only five. And she left a legacy that still lives today. I adopted all my girls since, except for Emerald, as a direct result of losing her so young. Onyx because of her name and she smiled. Pearl because of her color. Diamond because she was Pearl's sister Opal, Jade, Crystal and Tanzanite all because of their color. All white and black, goofy girls, like Topaz. Even after all this time, I still miss your baby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greytpups Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Mary Pat, 3 years ago today we lost Bailey to cancer. I seem to remember every moment of the last 24 hours of her life still. I was thinking this morning that the pain never really goes away, we just learn to tolerate it. I really wish we didn't have an anniversary like this in common All that's good will never be forgotten. Quote Jan with precious pups Emmy (Stormin J Flag) and Simon (Nitro Si) and Abbey Field. Missing my angels: Bailey Buffetbobleclair 11/11/98-17/12/09; Ben Task Rapid Wave 5/5/02-2/11/15; Brooke Glo's Destroyer 7/09/06-21/06/16 and Katie Crazykatiebug 12/11/06 -21/08/21. 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...
