greytpups Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 (edited) Marc, I saw this on fb and was so deeply saddened. Always a loving unselfish gift, it's so so painful. I wish you well on your journey as you learn to live your life without Taylor. I know he took a big piece of your heart with him.

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...
claudiav Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I had the honor or meeting my celebrity crush, Taylor, along with Mark & Face, 3.5 yrs ago, back in Pompano Beach.... What a dream of a pup... I got hugs and kisses from my idol, and HE MADE my trip... When I heard he got the dreaded OS, I shed tears like he was my own.... He had a wonderful two years post diagnosis and I loved reading every update and picture... still living the good life, mostly upside down, walking and enjoying car rides.... Now that he has crossed the bridge, I find myself in tears again, knowing full well the pain of losing your heart dog much too early... I can't explain how deeply sorry I am for the loss of a legendary pup... I feel like I've lost one of my own... My thoughts are with you, Mark, and I hope you lean on Face for comfort...

GreyPoopon Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I am so very sorry. He was an extraordinary boy who not only survived but thrived under your care. I wish you both could have fought the odds and remained together a while longer, but it was not to be. Godspeed Taylor.

llm51807 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I'm so sorry Taylor is gone, Mark. What an amazing journey you three had together. Taylor was a Superhero to all of us who have had osteo hounds. Run free, Taylor, I hope you run into Cecil at the Rainbow Bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_daerr Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Mark... I haven't been on Greytalk in awhile. I was so saddened to log-in today and see this. You did EVERYTHING possible for your sweet boy. I hope you can find some peace in knowing that you gave him the best life imaginable. Taylor reminded me so much of my Henry. First greyhound, diagnosed so young, embracing the tripod life and beating the odds. I'm sure Hen welcomed him across the bridge, and that they're running like lunatics, doing laps around all the four-legged greys. Hugs to you and Face.

queenwinniesmom Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 (edited) Oh, your T-shirt says it all! And your beautiful tattoo. Your world DID revolve around doing everything you possibly could to make your boy safe and happy and free of pain. He was so greatly loved, and he knew it. Filling that empty space will be like trying to fill the ocean. I hope that your many, many wonderful memories will help, along with the sympathy of all the people who shared your journey. I'm so sorry you lost your precious Taylor.

GreytXpctations Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I have been following Taylor's story since I have been on here, and I am so sorry to hear of your loss. He was lucky to have you, and I'm sure that you feel the same about him. My sincere condolences. We have been involved with breed specific rescues and animal welfare for years. For some reason nothing has torn at our hearts like losing our greys. We have loved all of our dogs, and kept track of all of our fosters, but the greys were all special. I am so sorry.
