Time to say goodbye

[lute]

May I make a suggestion?? Bring Kersey with you when it's Graham's time. This way he will be there. It'll make it easier on him.

i've heard this too. it sounds mean to take your other dog to watch your other dog pass on, but it makes things easier in the long run.

Leslie, I know this has been a very hard decision for you and I am sorry to hear it has come to this. We hoped that Graham would pull through this, but sometimes God's plans our different then ours.

I'm glad I got the chance to know your sweet Graham-Craker and even got to share our home with him for a week. You and your family will be in our thoughts.

Oh, Leslie, my heart goes out to you at this difficult time!! Just 9 months ago, I, too, was in your position. I know what you are going through. May Killian and Shiloh rush over to greet Graham and take him under wing. Tears are flowing freely now...
I will be thinking of you and Graham tomorrow morning as you send him gently on his way to Rainbow Bridge. You know that even though your heart is breaking in a million pieces, it is the love that will keep you strong. Hugs. Give Graham a gentle kiss on the top of his head for me, OK?

I'm so sorry.. (((HUGS)))
I have several RB dogs who will show Graham around.. God speed, Graham.

Oh Leslie I don't even know what to say. I remember Graham in his "younger days". I have always loved the pictures of him you have posted and I just love the little man. I feel as if I'm loseing one of my own babies. You are doing the right thing ::hugs::.

I'm so sorry. I know Graham understands and he's going to remember how loving his mom was to help him through his final days. Be brave and one happy day you'll meet your little boy again.

Having met Graham and you I know how special he is to you - please accept my deepest condolences to you and your family.

Leslie,

You are doing the right thing. As heartbreaking as it may be. May I make a suggestion?? Bring Kersey with you when it's Graham's time. This way he will be there. It'll make it easier on him.

Love and hugs to you honey. You're in my prayers.

Donna

That would be a good idea - she is so close to her brother that she might accept it easier.

I am unable to sleep and I checked my email and Pam had sent me a mesage to let me know of your decision, Leslie. Thank you for being brave for Graham. I know your heart is breaking. My heart will go with you in the morning. And I know 3 special furry ones who haven't been gone too long, themselves, that will be there to greet your special boy.

Love you, Graham! You will always be a special Pet Talk boy to us. And we love you, too, Leslie.

Love you, Leslie, give Graham a big, collective hug and kiss from all of Pet Talk. We'll be here when you need us, we know it's gonna feel like a chunk of your heart is gone, but really, that's the spot where Graham will be, curled in a corner of your heart, for the rest of your life. It just hurts like heck in the transition time.

Leslie, I am so sorry. {{love & hugs}}

I hope we hear from her soon I know this is a tough time but who better to talk it out with then the people who share that kind of love and who have been there before.

Your pain will ease with time. You will never forget Graham, No one will. Someday he will send you someone in need. You will know this special treasure is from Graham and you will understand why his time has come to pass.

I'm so sorry you have to go through this

There was so many things I wanted to say to you, but words escape me now.
Lots of love to you and your family.

stealing the hearts of the people he has met.

I can barely breath as I read this post and all the thoughtful replys. Graham takes with him a piece of my heart, and Hannah's and Tucker's too. I know he will watch for and greet many of us who have loved him as he waits by the bridge.

Leslie, I cannot add any more to what others have said. I think I understand the depth of you pain now and in the days to come. Please let your other fur children comfort you and help you not to let this parting become a deep dark hole of grief. Graham lived his life for you and now you must do him justice by staying strong and moving forward as he would want you to.
