FiveRoooooers Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 This quote is new to me. I thought I would share it in the hope that it can bring some comfort to those who are missing their friends who remain forever in our hearts. For my Segugio (4/20/00-12/31/11) and (Foster)Sweet (02/26/03-12/09/14) "You will lose someone you can’t live without, and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp.” --- Anne Lamott :angelwings Quote Old Dogs are the Best Dogs.

greytpups Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I'm still really struggling with Ben's death and it's been 7 weeks. I never knew my heart could be so badly broken. I can't wait to "dance with the limp" because the place I'm in now is still far to painful to comprehend that I will ever get there. thanks for sharing. 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...

hidoey Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) Thank you. I've been limping for years . The death of my first hound, Gracie, in 1999 absolutely shattered me and it was years before I could accept she was gone. Her death punched me in the gut - it was so much harder to lose her than my beloved parents. So I understand the intense pain and grief we experience. It's frightening to feel so lost and out of control. I wish for peace and gentleness for us all. Edited January 10, 2016 by hidoey Quote Jackie with Tangerine and Chimes Always missing Gracie, Steely, Annie, Payne, Twilite, Janey Bug, Bindi, Sophie, and Dazzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
