    Thanks everyone. It is so good to have support. You just don't know. I'm back to ask for prayers and good thoughts. I've found a place to rent, where I could have the kittens with me. It's only 1000 per month, with 200 on top for utilities. It would be fully furnished. I need good thoughts to make them get back to me and let me have the place.

    As a side note, Sasha is not doing well and I am afraid I am going to have to make the final decision for her on top of all the other stuff I am going thru. She looks at me with tired eyes and seems to be in so much pain, even though she's still on her pain meds.

    I don't know how I'm going to get thru all this.

    Today's problems belong to yesterday, tomorrow.

    One day at a time and will get thru it.

    Or you can give up now, lie down, roll up into a little ball and not be bothered.


    You will get thru this, it just takes time and patience. Everyone has time-patience is something that is a little bit harder to come by, but it's there.

    Prayers needed?
    Prayers sent.

    So sorry QOP but quoting Medussa. I'll keep you in my thoughts and keep my fingers crossed for that apartment you hope to get.
    One day at a time is the best way to cope , but hoping that decision for your fur friend can be put off.

    Prayers you get that apartment.

    You just need to deal with today, even one moment at a time.

    Dear dear Sasha...prayers for her and you.

    And...the ex contacts your LAWYER, not you.

    Does your company have an EAP where you might get some counselling, even to just unload? Get all the support you can, hon!

    My good wishes and prayers for you, Gayle, as you go through this difficult and trying period in your life. I lit a candle too: http://www.gratefulness.org/candles/...ng&cid=9374572

    I feel for you deeply, as someone in the same situation. My eleven year marriage ended yesterday, as he betrayed me.

    I know just where your head is now, I am lost and very alone now, as well.

    If you wish to PM me, we can let our hearts out and pick up the pieces.

    Goodness, I'm sorry to hear of such sadness. Prayers are going up for you, too, Rosethecopycat.
    Blessings,

    Prayers for both of you, Gayle and Rose. I cannot imagine what you're going through, but you've both taken the first positive step in getting your life back. Keep that momentum going!

    Rose, I am so sorry. I know just how you feel. It SUCKS!!!

    Candace, I've talked with the EAP people.

    I've found a condo, I'm going tomorrow to view and sign up. Figure I'll be back to a "normal" life by Wednesday.

    Today is likely Sasha's last day. She just seems so tired. It's such an effort for her to lay down or get up. I'm just not sure I can do it. I've had her for 14 years.

    Gayle, I am glad you have the EAP and are looking at the condo...at least you will have a base to work from and make home for a while.

    I really feel for you with poor Sasha. At this point in your life, with so much emotion going on, the advice to put your own feelings second to what is best for Sasha is going to be difficult, if not seeming to be downright cruel.

    If today is the day that Sasha flies to the Bridge, can one of your parents go with you? Do you have any friends in Sundre? Heck...I can be there in an hour. Let me know.

    Maybe there is a vet that would come to the house, whenever the decision is made.

    Sasha has had several more years of being loved and doing better because of your devotion to her. Others would have given up on her quite a while ago.

    The vet here in Sundre won't cremate and give me her ashes in an urn. So I will take Sasha with me to Calgary tomorrow morning and we will see our own vet. I don't know how I will carry on without her. My whole life is crumbling. But I think it's best for her. It is so painful to watch her try to move around and get comfortable.

    But the good part is, you won;t be carrying on without her, as she will be with you always in spirit. Her pain and suffering will be over, and she will become your own furry guardian angel, with you every step of the way as you begin your new future. I promise.

    And Rose, we are thinking of you, too. We love you!

    Hi,

    My intent was not to highjack this thread with my own troubles, this is about Gayle and her Sasha right now. I just wanted her to know that somewhere in the world out there, somebody is going through the same thing as her.
