Too Upset ..

Like many have said, Gina, at least you know that you did everything possible for them. No one else could have, or would have, done more.

I know how you feel about the vets that you're still paying. Sometimes its so easy to think that you're making their Mercedes payments when you pay those bills.. or their next vacation to Hawaii and here your babies are gone anyway. But you can't keep feeling that way. It'll eat you up inside.

I spent the whole morning reading about Miles (I feel like I've known him his whole life now) from when you first got him right up until the end of his remarkable life. What a treasure he was! Is.. because you know he's in God's hands now and he loves them more than we ever could.

You can't let this get you down! Miles' life was worth so much more!! After all he had been through, his body was weakened, his kidneys were too small and his nine lives were just worn out. No doctor could have saved him, I'm sure, but you gave it your all, just as he did.

You were spared the agony of watching him fail. He hid that from you, knowing that you'd be so upset, so please don't torture yourself. Handling the grief is hard enough on its own.

Console yourself with the knowledge that your living little ones need you so much. Be strong for them. They grieve, too, and they need you.

But that's not the only way you'll remember them, their imprints in your eart will last longer than the bills. The important thing is to keep the rest of the ark - and you - healthy. I'd keep a close watch on Ocean, and if he's acting at all unwell, get him to the vet, and explain that Ocean and Miles were both at the vet at the same time for emergency care, and you're worried that there might be some lingering infection ...

I am so sorry...It is hard when there isn't a clear why. You gave (give) them love while they were with you. I know losing each one is painful...horribly painful, but I hope that in time you find that the love shared has enriched your heart more than wounded it.

Please find ways to nurture yourself. You've gone through so much you must be running on near empty...and I know for me that makes one so vulnerable to depression on top of grief.

You are such a blessing to the animals... please take care of yourself as if you were one of them.

I am so glad you can come here and share your feelings with people who truly understand how you are feeling. We are all thinking of you and really hope that things take a turn for the better soon.
