Vela's Ginger (03/04/08)

Thank you for the momerial video Jess, it means a lot to me and I know how hard you worked on it to make it just perfect for her. I will always treasure it. It brings back some wonderful memories of my pretty girl. I still can't watch it without tears, probably never will be able to, but it's a wonderful tribute.

On week later, I still have days I can't really beleive she's gone, and it seems so emtpy without her here, but maybe that will eventually fade, I don't know. Her new tags that I got last week for her are now on her collar, which rests on the mantle with her leash. I guess that's a small part of moving on, to put them away. I still feel a huge hole in my heart but everyone says this gets better. I guess maybe eventually it will. I call out to her each day, and tell her I love her. I hope she can hear me. I just keep going forward, each day to the next, doing what needs to be done, I still miss my girl. But I can smile sometimes when I remember something funny, or listen to her piggy noises on her memorial. I guess that gets easier too as time goes by.

Thank you all for the continued thoughts and good wishes.

Rob Thomas seems to be able to put into words my feelings lately. I hadn't even heard this song until this morning. The video is off a little at the end, but the words sure mean a lot. While it hurts, I have all those small moments in time that won't ever go away. Everyone who has lost something or someone does. While they are clouded with hurt at first, they are precious. I was a bit surprised close to the end, with the dog. Gave me a bit of a jolt I guess.

everyone says this gets better

It will get better. Maybe not soon, but it will.

I hope she can hear me

I'm sure she can. I still talk to my Mandy.
Ginger will always be there, you will always feel her around. She will always be a part of you.

What a beautiful memorial video. I am so sorry, Vela. I can only imagine what you are feeling, she was gone so suddenly. ((hugs)) and prayers to you. I hope things get easier for you, I really do.

Oh no. I'm just seeing this thread for the first time. I'm so sorry to hear about Ginger. I'm sending you a hug.

How is Cracker & Soda doing? Are they looking around for her?

Oh I'm just so sorry. I wish I knew what else to say. You gave Ginger a wonderful and a happy life. You were both blessed to have known and loved eachother.

Take care.

Two weeks today baby girl. Seems like forever since you left. I still miss you. I know you can hear me when I tell you I love you each day. I also know you took things into your own hands because I couldn't seem to cope. I love you baby girl.

Beautiful video for such a very special Boxer girl. Rest in peace, Ginger.

I had Ginger read by Nancy yesterday, will post more about it later, I'm still quite emotional about it, but I have some peace about it, although I miss her SO SO much still every day. I beleive the things Nancy told me, I hadn't told her anything about Ginger and she told me things she could only have known if she communicated with her. I only confirmed things after she told them to me, as best I coudl through the tears. I'm glad I did it and I'm grateful to Nancy for doing the reading for me, it will help me heal in the end.
