I'm so very sorry that you had to say goodbye to Grace and the shock of it just adds to your grief, I'm sure. She was so incredibly adorable and those ears are beyond cute! Hoping your happy memories are bringing you some comfort. :grouphug

She's home. And it turns out the urn I blindly selected without thinking while I was at the e-vet on Friday is totally perfect for her.

Oh, I'm so sorry! I know that your heart must be filled with such pain. The awful suddenness is just another layer of grief to overcome. Be gentle with yourself, and know that others are sharing your sadness.

 

I'm so sorry you lost your precious Grace. The picture of the two of you is especially lovely.

It seems like Grace has always been a fixture here. I am so very sorry she had to leave you.

We've been on GT for almost 7 years. Her gotcha day was 4/27/06. It doesn't seem that long and at the same time seems like forever. We are honored to be amongst the GT "memorables". She was such a special girl.

Lauren!! :( I just saw this in your siggy in a different thread, and had to find out what happened!

I'm so sorry. Losing her so suddenly ... Losing them at all is so hard, and watching our beloved friends go through a painful decline is its own kind of hell, but losing your sweet girl like this is such a shock. You have to shove all the first stages of grief into hours. No time for bargaining, no time for railing, no time for denial, no time for acceptance to begin to settle in before she's gone. :(

I hope you can take some comfort in the knowledge that her suffering was a brief moment at the very end of a wonderful life that you spent together, filling each day with love and friendship.

My deepest sympathies!!

It feels like Grace has been gone both for only moments but also months at the same time. I sure miss her. I miss her like crazy.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Count me among her GT fanbase--I remember your posts from when I first joined 5 years ago. What a lovely tribute. She was loved, and knew it. And she will be missed.

Today would have been my perfect girl's 10th birthday. I hope she's having the party of the century up there! On man, I miss my girl. :cry1

 

This should be the scene at my house right now. Two greyhounds desprately awaiting their release command to scarf a cheeseburger. :lol I have a Grace sized hole in my heart.
