Vela's Ginger (03/04/08)

This helped me a lot when my Mandy died. Ginger will always be near you.

Grieve not, nor speak of me with tears,
but laugh and talk of me as if I were beside you.
I loved you so...T'was heaven here with you.

That actually does help me, I was able to smile and laugh about her today for a few minutes while talking with Jessica. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers, it really does help. I have my okay times then suddenly it hits me again and I turn into a blubbering idiot. Heh I am TRULY thankful that she died peacefully at home, safe and loved, but I'm also having a hard hard hard time with the fact that she's truly gone. I want to hug her big old head and look into her eyes and tell her how much I love her.

Shirley, you can still tell Ginger how much you love her.....and she will hear you. {hugs}

Oh, I just saw this. My heart really goes out to you. Reading your posts remind me of how much I adore and love Lucky, and I just could never imagine him being taken away from me. I can't even fathom the pain you're going through, but I hope we all can help abate the hurt just a little.

*hugs*

Am adding my tears to the rest. I am so sorry that your precious girl has gone

I am just seeing this now and wanted to add my condolences through my tears. Your post has not left a dry eye in all of Pet Talk I am sure. I have told this story before, but my Whitney left for the RB one day while I was at work. I left a healthy dog in the morning and came home to a dead dog on the sofa at 5:00PM. I mention this to you now because my vet suggested an autopsy. He was thinking it might have been a heart attack but offered to confirm that. I couldn't bear for someone to cut into her body and so I refused. I am sorry now. It would have settled things for me. It wouldn't have lessened the pain for me but might have given me an explanation. Years later, I have come to think it might have been bloat but I will never know and that still bothers me since she was alone and I want to know if she suffered much. Please feel our (((hugs))) and caring thoughts for you at this time. Your baby died right beside you, her most favorite place in all of the world.

It truly is the hardest thing to say goodbye,There not just animals there our kids.
We lost Anna last November,She was so strong about things too.Almost like she knew it was her time.After we put her to rest i was a mess,I would go out and just stand at her grave.I could not bare walking in the house and locking up withought her.The first night i stayed on the deck allnight.

Even though i never met Ginger it saddens me to see her go,It is hard to bare her not being there,But remember she is now your Guardian Angel and will still be with you every step of the way,Until the day you reunite.

Hugs to you Vela,Im truly sorry you have lost Ginger,She was such a beautiful girl.
