BellaBean Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 My heart is breaking with you..I have no words to say except Gracie knew she was loved for this short time and you show'd her what a true family was. It's just so unfair that she has been taken from you after such a short time. I'm so sorry.

Guest Vers Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 At work with tears rolling down my face. I am so, so heartfelt sorry that Gracie couldn't stay longer -- finally where she was completely loved and loved you completely in return. What a beautiful spirit she has. You gave her the very best days of her life, and I loved seeing her joy in your pictures of her. Jan, my deepest sympathies. It's never enough time, but this is so very unfair. Godspeed, beautiful girl. You won't ever be forgotten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mangos_mom Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 OH, no! Gracie. Oh, my heart is breaking right along with your's, Jan. I will always remember her twirling at Christmas when I was there. I am so, so very sorry. Gracie, twirl your way over the Rainbow Bridge, sweetie, but don't forget to send your momma a sign that you made it okay. Then go find Ruger - he's sure to know where the softest clouds and the bestest biskie trees are! Hugs, Jan!

AEB Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Jan, I am so very sorry to hear of Gracie's passing. Thank you for taking such good care of her. I remember just a few short months ago when Meri posted about her. We considered the idea of adopting her and so we met Gracie, Meri and Meri's mother Carla (RIP Carla) to walk the beach with some other greys. Gracie was so cheerful despite having just undergone a major dental. I remember that when we met her Meri told me you were interested in her. I somehow knew she was not meant for us, she was meant for you. I have followed her journey ever since and felt very grateful that you two found each other and that she helped to mend your heart. I was shocked to read that she had passed. She was a vibrant spirit. Many thanks to you and to Meri for your care of this special girl.- April Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PiagetsMom Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Oh, Jan.....I'm so very sorry , but I am so glad that Gracie had your love for these last months, and that you had hers.

GreyPoopon Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Oh no! Not Gracie, who has brought joy not only to her family, but to all of GT. I am crushed, and I only knew her through GT.

macoduck Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Oh, how I loved reading stories about your Gracie. Her final job on this earth was to mend your broken heart and I think she did that within seconds of you two meeting. In your home she knew she had landed in heaven on earth. I can see her now, at the Bridge, teaching the other dogs the joy of twirling.

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...
