Saying Goodbye

Hello my sweet girl, it has been 4 months today that we had to say goodbye to you. My heart still aches for you, I miss you so much, sometimes it seems like forever since you went to the Bridge, sometimes it feels like it was only yesterday. I still have alot of your stuff sitting in the same place as it was when you left, mommy cant move it yet, I have a few things little by little. I do hope and pray you and Mousse are having a wonderful time at the Bridge and that you both still know how very much I love you. There is not a day that goes by that I dont think of you both. The other night I told Daddy that you two were visiting, I heard Mousse's snores and I felt you bumping against the bed like you always did when you were in a playful mood. At first daddy thought mommy was crazy but then he felt it too. We both started to cry knowing you guy's were letting us know you were ok. It does my heart good to know you both can come home from time to time. Always remember we love you both very much and we miss you just as much.
Love, mommy.

so sorry

Yesterday was a rough day for mommy, I finally moved your stuff from where it has lain the last 4 months and i finally threw out all those medicines you were taking, off and on the last several months we still had you here with us. Part of it was like loosing you all over again, I knew it had to be done but my heart did not want to let it go. Ginger, I never doubt that daddy and I did the right thing for you, and that we took care of you as well as we possibly could have, and I know your Dr did everything that he could possibly do for you, but sometimes that just does not help, it doesnt help on the days that mommy misses you and Mousse so bad that I feel like I am going nuts, it does not replace this empty spot inside me that just never seems to go away. I loved each of you differently but never doubt it was just as strong for you both. Mommy has a birthday coming up this month and I dont even care about it, it will not be the same anyway and it puts me that much closer to june when it would have been your birthday. I know for some people they just dont understand but you and bubby were my kids, God did not put it in the cards for mommy to have human kids, but he sure did put it in the cards for me to have furkids, and to love them as if they were my own and to care for them and nurture them, and that is what i did with you and bubby, and now there is an empty hole where the two of you filled it up. I pray that both of you understand when the day comes and mommy gets another furkid, but please dont ever think it will ever replace you or mousse, never never could it.
Run fast and play hard at the Bridge my angel's, and always remember mommy loves you more than anything.

I am sorry that you are still in pain. This post describes exactly how I feel. I had to put my best kitty friend, Maxie, to sleep less than 2 weeks ago. A day hasn't gone by that I haven't cried for him. Last night I cried and cried and begged for him to come back. I went on vacation last week to Florida. Before Maxie died I was afraid to fly. But after Maxie died, I didn't care whether the plane crashed or not. I thought if it crashed, at least I would be with my Maxie.

I wish our pets could stay with us forever. And I hope someday our hearts won't hurt so badly. Take care.

((((gentle hugs)))) sending you thoughts of sympathy.

((tears)) I am so sorry Marti. Your love for them will never go away, but perhaps someday the pain will lessen.
Please know you are always in my thoughts.
And don't forget to smile! :) Both of them wouldn't like to see you sad, they'd want to see you smile! :D

Mommy has not written in a while my precious girl, I am very sorry for that. Mommy and daddy got another dog, his name is Reilly, I think part of you would have liked him because of his spunk, but the older part of you would have hated having a puppy around. I miss you and mousse on a daily basis that will never change nor the love I have for the both of you. You have been on my mind more so lately, your birthday is coming up, it's very hard for me to think of you not being here!!! it hurts to think this would have been your 13th birthday, God blessed Mommy for many years and I am forever thankful for that. Please dont be upset about Reilly, he will never take you or mousse's place, mommy misses you so much my sweet girl, when Mousse died Ginger I did not think I would be able to get through it, but you were right there by my side, I think you grieved as hard as mommy did, I hope you are playing and running like you always loved to do and that you are safe and healthy. I love you

I am sure your every word is being heard.

Take care.

I know that every word you "said" is being heard~


May your Sorrow become Your Gift , as one by one, the Golden Memories serve you with Comfort and with Peace.

I know what you are going through. just last saturday we had to put our sweet girl to sleep. She had cancer she fought it for almost two years. I cry every day. I Know that she is in Heaven and I Know she is not suffering anymore. She is their with all the other dogs and cats they will met your baby and he will be with all of them. In time God will heal your heart as he will heal mine. God Bless you and your husband.

Tomorrow is your one year anniversary of the day we had to say goodbye to you my sweetheart. Mommy misses you as much today as I did that day. The pain I felt that day has eased some, but I will always remember what it felt like to have to say good bye to you, it was so hard. Daddy and I never wanted to have to do that, but we also knew that it was the best thing to do for you. Ginger you were our sweet little angel and now you are our angel at the Rainbow Bridge.
We love and miss you so much. I know tomorrow is Thanksgiving but it won't be for me, I am grateful for all that I have, for having you and Mousse in my life for as long as I did, for Reilly, but I still mourn for you guys and I always will. So tomorrow won't be much of a Holiday for Mommy but that is ok, it is a day I will honor you and remember you, just like I do Mousse on Christmas Eve.
Rest easy by Ginger Girl and know that Mommy loves you so very much and you will always be in my heart.
I Love You.

Big HUGS to you and Jeff!!

I know that your Ginger & Mousse feel your & your husbands love always. They are watching you guys from the bridge, and are so happy that you are sharing your love & home with a another furbaby. You and your husband will see them both again one day, and you will all be a family again(Reilly too). Keep playing hard @ the bridge Ginger & Mousse, your mommy and daddy love you always.

I wonder if they've met Duke yet? I hope they're all playing and having a good time. It gets easier but not a lot. I just wish we could feel their presence. At least we'll be able to smile this Christmas, though. Our RB dogs found us a couple of good ones.

Ginger my sweet little girl, today marks two years since you left us to go to the Rainbow Bridge, wow just does not seem like it. I am sure bebe kitty is with you and Mousse now and having a great time with you guys and you are protecting her from the other dogs...lol you know she only liked you and Mousse. Mommy misses you as much today as I did that horrible morning we had to say goodbye to you. I know you are at peace, you guys come and let me know every now and then. I just wanted you to know I was thinking of you and I love you my sweet girl.
