thehouseofearl Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Our beautiful boy is gone.His brain tumor was making it very difficult for him to stand and walk. Although he was only with us for 5 months he captured our hearts immediately. He instantly became a part of our family. We all loved him so much.I spent as much time as possible sitting in the Dining Room with him as he couldn't come down the stairs any more. He could always see whoever was in the living room or kitchen so he was never really alone but I felt so bad for him.He loved to go and do his little 'romp' in the back yard, albeit only a few short seconds but the last 2 days he couldn't even do that and last night and today we couldn't let him off leash and we were by his side every time he went out because his balance was leaving him. It looked so uncomfortable for him.God how I hated to see this again. It was so much like Dante in his last days only 6 months ago.He spent his day today eating what ever he wanted and sleeping all afternoon.He went to the bridge with Mommy, Daddy and Madison all showering him with love.We miss you Target and you will always be with us in our hearts and memories.

racindog Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) My heart is breaking for you. I know it is just so extremely painful to watch their very brain taken away from them. But he is well now. Well and whole and happy. I have told my bridge angel Minny(also brain disorder victim) to find him. Minny will take care of him and welcome him. There has never been a creature any more compasionate than Minny. Cancer is so limited It cannot cripple love It cannot shatter hope It cannot corrode faith It cannot destroy peace It cannot kill friendship It cannot suppress memories It cannot silence courage It cannot invade the soul It cannot steal eternal life It cannot conquer the spirit. -Anonymous Edited March 26, 2013 by racindog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greytpups Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Liz, Larry and Madison, we are so sorry. You have had so many losses these last few years. But your love for your greys always comes first, no matter how painful. Wishing you much strength as you once again grieve for a loved one. Godspeed Target...rest well sweetie. for all of you. Ben and Bailey will get an extra hug today in your honour. Edited March 26, 2013 by greytpups Quote Jan with precious pups Emmy (Stormin J Flag) and Simon (Nitro Si) and Abbey Field.

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...

queenwinniesmom Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Oh, Liz, I can't tell you how sorry I am. So much sadness and loss in too short a time. You loved him so much, and though it's sad that he didn't get to stay longer, he knew that he was safe and cherished. Doug and I are thinking of you and Larry with much sympathy, and sending you cyber hugs---wish we could hug you in person!
