    My deepest sympathy on your loss. You & your husband sound like loving parents. You will see Ginger again...in another time...and another place.

    RIP sweet Ginger. All of your pain is gone. Run free at the Rainbow Bridge cutie pie.

    Take care.
    I love Fenway, JoJo, Olivia and Nonnie!

    I've had to make that decision before, too, and there is just no way around it, it sucks. But you did it for her sake, and Ginger is running happy & healthy at the RB now, no more pain. Please post more pictures and tell us your stories about your beautiful girl, sometimes that helps.

    today was the first day I came home and you were not here waiting at the door, all excited to see me with hugs and kisses. i started crying before i ever got out of the car, this pain is unbearable, i miss my sweet loving girl. the house is way to quiet without you, im so lost without you and mousse here to take care of every day and to love. i know in time this will pass but right now it is just the worst feeling in the world. i know you are happier now at least your not sick your able to play and run and enjoy life, i just wish you were still here with me able to do all of that.
    mommy loves you baby girl.

    Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

    When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
    There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
    There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

    All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
    The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

    They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

    You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

    Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

    I have no right to ask, but I will anyway, please pray for us that we are strong enough to do the right thing for her and not make it about us!!!
    You have every right to ask! You loved your baby as much as we love ours which is why you did the kindest, bravest thing you could do

    Ginger,
    I know mommy does not write in this very often, its not because I dont think of you, I do that daily and several times through out the day and night. It is just hard because it brings the pain back of loosing you again. Daddy and I still have your food bowl where you left it, your bed in our room next to my side of the bed, we still even have your meds you were taking in the same place where we last gave them to you. I can't stand the thought of moving them, that is one step closer i have to get to knowing you are never coming back to us. I miss you more than words can say, i look for you every time i go home and in every aspect of our lives i miss you terribly. Daddy misses you too, he is so sad. We are not even putting a christmas tree up this year because we can't seem to get in the spirit of christmas without you and mousse. I know in my heart we did the right thing for you but at the same time I wish I could have kept you with me longer. I love you my baby girl more than you will ever know.
    love mommy
