She's Gone

[tatsxxx11]

Thank you Aly for giving us all a place in which to share our love for Staci and Shaianne.

Staci, please know how much we all loved beautiful Shaianne. What a special girl she is. What a wonderful, loving mom you were to her. Blees you angel Shai. Your light now graces Heaven and all those need your gentleness and love. Love, Sandra

For Gio, Staci, and everyone who has lost a precious furkid.
God Bless Our Pets

They say memories are golden
Well, yes, this may be true
I never wished for memories
I only wanted you

A million times I needed you
A million times I cried
If love alone could save you
You never would have died

In life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still
In my heart you hold a special place
No one can ever fill

If tears could build a stairway
And heartache pave a lane
I'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you back again

Our family chain is broken
And nothing seems the same
But as God calls us one by one
The chain will link again

Staci I am so glad you are doing better. I agree, it is too soon for another dog, but when you are ready, he or she will really help you out. And you always have us here at Pet Talk, hundreds of ready shoulders for you to cry on

Staci,
I am so sorry about Shaianne. I can only imagine the pain and grief you are going through. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this most difficult time.

Just wanted to let all of you know that I am doing better. I still miss her so much it hurts, and if wasn't for this little white furball of an angel in Kylie, I would completely lose my mind. She is so sweet.
I also had to tell you what my nephew said.
When my sister told him about her he asked why (he's 4) and she said " Well Jesus was lonely up in heaven and Shai was sick and we didn't know it, so he decided to take her now so she wouldn't be sick anymore and she would help all the people that died on Tues." He said "OK, well can you tell Aunt Stac that I wanna help her pick out the next one!" Then on Mon I was talking to him and he said "Aunt Stace, are you gonna get another puppy?" I said "Well sometime" I could hear my sister in the background "shhhhh don't say that give her time she is still really sad!" and then he says " And can you get one that Jesus doesn't want?!" My sister felt awful, and I said "Don't worry about it, out of the mouths of babes!!!" He will miss her!!

Same here....weep, weep
Sandra, that poem tore me apart
Oh Stace, everytime I read your posts, I want to cry. I really feel your pain. I look at Cody and just burst into tears just thinking they'll be a time when I have to say farewell. Please take are of yourself. You KNOW Shai knew she was loved to pieces so please never ever worry about that. I'm still thinking about you...Karen

The loss of dear Shai is so heartbreaking. I, too, cry whenever I read the posts here. I really feel for you, Staci. I know how much it hurts and it will for quite a while and never really go away. Two months after the loss of my Avalanche, I went to the kill shelter and adopted Killian. He helped stop the pain. I told myself that Avalanche died so Killian could live (he was on death row).

By the way, I visited the kill shelter yesterday to drop off Shiloh's "Strut Your Mutt" dog walkathon application. There were no dogs there over 2 years old. You know what that means. It was so sad. I saw two lovely dogs there, in particular. I hope someone adopts them!!

What a sad story! Wow, yeah that got me crying. I am very glad you have your little white angel of a kitty to help you cope. We all love you. Heaven has gained another angel.

Staci your nephew is precious and what a deep thinker! He doesn't want you or him to have to ever go through this again! I hope each day is getting to be a little easier to get through than the day before. I am so glad you have Kylie to love and cling to right now. Some day you will be ready to adopt again but for now take all the time you need to heal. It is not easy.

So sorry about your loss. Just keep remembering that you gave her a good life. It hurt like heck when I lost my last girl. I was kinda unsure about getting another dog. We waited a few months and fall in love with one at the Humane Society! And it was a wise choice! When you feel its right you will know and you have plenty of love for another dog. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
