Binx is at the RB...

[KYS]

I am sitting hear crying as I read your posts.
I am so so sorry to hear about Binx.
You both tried so hard.
You did all that you could possibly do and more.
It's so hard to let go, even when it is the right time.
HUGS and heartful thoughts.

Johanna, I'm sorry it's taken me so long to respond. I just haven't known what to say. I still don't know what to say, other than I'm so sorry and you have been in my thoughts. I know that the desicion you made was very hard, but know that you did the right thing. I know that Binx is at the RB as happy as a big doggie can possibly be, just waiting to meet up with you again someday.

Johanna,

I couldn't say much when I first heard about Binx's passing.
I just felt so sad for you & that sweet soul Binxy.

Please know that I do understand how hard that final decision
is to make & you showed true love and compassion by making
it for Binx. His time on earth was short but he had the best
Momma any dog could dream of.

Please know that you are in our thoughts & prayers. God grant
you peace & comfort in your time of sorrow. Hugs, Liz,Smokey and
Kitties.

Johanna, I know your heart is hurting and breaking at the same time. It is so hard to lose a loved one. I know as everybody here does that you did do the right thing, and please take comfort in knowing that.

I have been thinking a lot about you in the last couple of days, remembering when I lost one of mine. Thinking about how empty the house felt when I came home from the vets. I was alone that day, and I just done a lot of screaming and crying. Sleep did not come easy for me, because I kept thinking there was something more I could have done. I went so far as keep all the things that my little one slept on so I could smell her. It has been 12 years since I had to let her go. I know it was for the best, as you know that it was best for Binx. My little ones name was Tito. Just hope those two meet at the RB. I always imagine that my little Tito is at rainbow being taken care of by my dad. May my dad also take care of your Binx, he was such a lover of animals.

I will keep you in my prayers Johanna, and pray that your heart mends, and that you will be able to find that beautiful smile that I have seen in the pictures. Please heal and find your smile again.

I meant to tell you that I know how hard that decision is to make, also. I was 18 and my parents were out of town. I came home to my old Siamese. She was lying in the doorway to my room. Her back leg muscles weren't working anymore. That was one of the hardest things that I've ever had to do. I know it's going to take a long time to even feel a little better. I hope your kitties help make the loss a little easier. We'll all be thinking about you.

Everytime I go on vacation and I am out of communication, something sad happens

Johanna, I am so sorry for Binx, sorry that his problem could not be solved. I know you did what was best for him! RIP dear Binx.

I really don't know what to say anymore, but I wanted to say that I am sitting here and I am so sad for you, but so happy at the same time. You had the opportunity to share your love with one of our best doggies, and he the same, one of our best Pet Talkers. You both fit so nicely together. You saved his life from those rotten people and took him in to care for him. I really admire all you did for Binxy boy. May he rest in peace, and please Johanna, if you need anything, ANYTHING, just PM me ok?

Johanna,


I am saddend and deeply sorry to hear that Binx has gone to the Bridge.
I know how hard it is to make such a difficult decision, but it does show just how much you loved Binx. He was loved by us all and will be missed but we all know he's probably having a great time at The Bridge.


HUGE HUGS and heartful thoughts, and lots of prayers for you at this most difficult time.

My heart is aching for you. I'm so sorry, Johanna.

I wish I could make you feel better. Here is my effort at doing so...

I believe, no, I KNOW that God hand picks our angels, human or other. I know God put you in Binx's life and he in yours. He needed your love and care before his final days on earth.

It takes a lot of love to end his suffering and pain. Working at a vet, I've seen a lot of people put animals through pain and suffering because they don't want to let them go, regardless of the poor quality of life they have to endure.

Please don't feel guilty, feel good about the amazing amount of love and concern you can hold in YOUR heart. You were amazing enough just loving and rescuing your cats. Then Binx came along and you not only rescued him from horrible people, but you gave him all the love in your heart.

I hope that one day, Binx will come to your mind and a smile will creep to your face and your heart will warm, not ache.

I'm very sorry Binx was only here a short while. We give a poem to people at work after they have to send their beloved family members to the Bridge. If you've heard it, forgive me. If not, hopefully it'll reassure you. Its a story of a family that has to send their Golden Retriever to the Bridge because its time. They want thier young son to observe so that he can fully grasp the meaning of life and death. After their beloved is gone, they sit and talk about why a dogs lifespan is so short in relation to humans. The little boy is quietly listening and sit thinking. Finally, he shares his opinion (and mine) on why our furry family members don't live on earth as long as we'd like. The boy states the following, "We are put on this earth to learn to be kind and treat everyone well. Its takes us a long time to figure that out, while dogs learn that real quickly."

I believe Binx learned that the second he took his first breath of air. With you, Johanna, he got the love he so freely gave the world.

Rest in peace, dear Binx. You will live on in the hearts of PTers and your mamma always.

Love, Kelly

Oh Kelly, what beautiful words. My tears are flowing again.

Binx if you are listening please know that even though we never met you have carved a very special place in my heart. You are running and playing happily at the RB while the rest of us are crying. We should be happy because we had the privilege of knowing you through Johanna.

Have you received your angel wings yet??

[gini]

I cannot read through these posts - I can't - I just can't.

Johanna, I am sending you a letter.

But for now - let me give you the biggest hug possible and let me dry your tears.

You are still and always be - my hero - and Binx knew you were his hero too.
