greyhead Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Tricia, I'm shocked, tearful, and deeply sorry as I'm just learning of this. (Flattened by flu for weeks.) Words just about fail me. That was a beautiful tribute you wrote, illustrated with your always-stunning photos of His Handsomeness. All of Greyhoundom will miss your Murray. He'll never be forgotten, that's for sure. I'm so very sorry for your loss. Quote Mary with Jumper Jack (2/17/11) and angels Shane (PA's Busta Rime, 12/10/02 - 10/14/16) and Spencer (Dutch Laser, 11/25/00 - 3/29/13).

nmontgomery48 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I don't know how I missed this, but I was shocked to see this. As I read your story, It brought tears to my eyes.

NeylasMom Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) My Murray is home tonight. This has only served to reopen the wounds that were starting to heal. I miss my boy so much. I felt that way when I got Neyla's ashes back. I think about you and Burke a lot. This is a difficult time. You have a lot of friends who care about you and who understand your connection with Murray. Don't be afraid to reach out. I'm always available if you want to talk, cry, etc. Edited February 7, 2016 by NeylasMom Quote Jen, CPDT-KA with Zuri, lab in a greyhound suit, Violet, formerly known as Faith, Skye, the permanent puppy, Cisco, resident cat, and my baby girl Neyla, forever in my heart "The great thing about science is that you're free to disagree with it, but you'll be wrong."

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...
Mercsmom Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I, too, missed the news somehow. We are so very sorry for your loss. What a long journey you all had together.
