Guest FullMetalFrank Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 The past few days have been really strange... My daughter, out of the blue, started drawing me pictures of him. And this morning she told me she saw him in a dream, and that he was still here with us. And he has been heavily on my mind. It's still a couple months shy of the anniversary of his death. Frank has been clinging to me like crazy, I don't know, it's just wierd. I am not a huge believer in things supernatural; but his presence is definately being felt here. Iberia and my daughter were never "best friends" he was a little bit intolerant of the little ones but she loved him, anyways and she knew how much we loved him. I think she is missing him as much as I am. Hence the pictures. She told me she wanted me to be able to see him any time I wanted... The pictures she draws, he's always smiling. I hope she is right, and he's smiling at the Bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CoachGrieber Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 I'm not really one to think about the hereafter, but, it seems to me that Iberia sure feels your love for him and is maybe even working through your little skinkid to tell you that he's happy :bannana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverfish Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Up till Susan died, I'd always kind of wanted to believe that animals could come back, and I believed in the hereafter in a Christian way. When Suze went, I was amazed at some of the experiences I had. I really felt her presence in the back of the car when we next passed the vet school where she died. Jim did one or two things that she used to do, but he didn't - and he's never done them again. I feel she was letting me know, through him, that she was still here. I would feel her especially in the garden in the evening, as if she was by my side. Some of this could be explained by wishful thinking, but not all of it. Jim would - and still sometimes does - stand looking up the garden as if he can see something beyond my vision. When Suze went, he'd sometimes stand there for half an hour in the middle of the night, refusing to come in. He never did before. Recently we had a communicator talk to Jim and Renie (via photographs), and I also sent her a picture of Suze. She said in her reply 'I can't remember if you told me if one of these dogs had passed on, but if not, you have a spirit dog whose presence is particularly strong in the kitchen'. The longer I live, the more I believe in things which aren't necessarily logical, and may defy science as we know it now. The continuation of life beyond the death of the body is one - and also that animals do have a soul. Why not ask a communicator to talk to him for you?

laurie Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 I fully believe the ones we loved so much are still here with us, watching over us. Sometimes I see a flash of white in the backyard--and I know it's Em. Iberia's spirit will always be with you.

Guest ProudGreyMom Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Of course you miss your sweetie and he is with you for sure. My Ben has been gone for about 8 months and I still feel like he's here with us. Don't be afraid to tell him you love him and that you don't mind that he is watching over you.

Guest how888 Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 I could write a book on this subject! Yes, I believe he is truly with you and I have had several friends with similar experiences after their pets passed away.Howie has been gone since Feb. 17th and I felt a strong presence twice now, so strong that my new dog Nike acted strange and also did a few things Howie use to do. Just really strange. I just know they are over that bridge watching over all of us and one day we will all be together.Children pick up on a lot of things and when she start drawing his picture that was a sign for sure. I hurt with you and for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 Yes he is there with you.

Guest auntiesara Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 yes they can come back. Sweetie appeared to her Dad. She was in the backyard. She had her tail (partial amputation before we got her) and her leg she had lost to osteosarcoma. A few days later we learned that a client( I used to be a personal care attendant) had died in his sleep. Sweetie had gone to the client's home and was friendly with his dog and seemed to be trying to tell us. Also a few years later Tango sensed spirits in our backyard at night after more bereavements and was afraid to go out. You aren't alone. They love us so much....

Guest bigdogsfive Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 To Iberia's Mom, My name is Kathy & have 3 great danes. I hope this is okey. Howie's mom is one of my best friends. Linda & Tim suffered terribly when Howie went over. I sincerely believe, our love furry friends do sent messages & angels to watch over, guide & protect us when we are left without them. Yes, they do communicate with us, sometimes not in a way we understand immediately. Follow your heart and miracles happen.

Guest lillysmum Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 I lost my heeler cross, Aussie, in December 2001. He was a wonderful dog in every way. When we adopted Lilly, there were some physical similarities that both DH and I picked up on. Examples? Lilly shakes (her body) the same way Aussie did, she has this sideways look like Aussie did, and numerous things that we both say, "Aussie did that too!" I believe they're always around in spirit. They know how much they're loved and missed, and they're trying to let us know they're still here, but in a different form. I do believe in life after death - and I believe in it for animals other than humans as well as for us. Dogs, sharing our space so closely, would be just as likely to have their spirit around as people, IMO. Enjoy your time with Iberia's presence - that's what he means for you to do. Take comfort in it. I know I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ProudGreyMom Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 I just finished studying pet loss in my vet assistant classes and when it comes to children and their dealing with the loss of a pet, it said they will often draw pictures out of the blue when they miss their friend.

lovinggreysslp Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 I work in the schools and our social worker always tells us that kids work through a lot of emotions through their art creations (adults can too). Sorry it is a sad time for you. I too think about our past pets and imagine that they are enjoying their favorite hobbies such as digging, stealing beanie babies, couter surfing etc but not having someone fuss at them to stop.
