Just One More Day

[robroy20]

Each day I find myself here,About a hour ago I was crying so hard,I just miss Jeb so much,Sissy goes from room to room looking for her Jeb.She has been with him her whole life.We try to keep her busy and try not to say any words about Jeb.She is so smart ,she picks up everything.We starting to spell words but they learned how to spell..ha,ha..


I want to thank you all so much...Bob,Diane,Sissy

Well, Don't feel like the Lone Ranger, you can start calling me Tonto now.

It will be 6 months on the 22nd of June, and I still cry real hard at times.

Keep re-reading this first thread that helped us out Bob, that's what I do.

This Pet Talk is my Fix, and you and I are in an old row boat at Sea.

We are not alone, I know that doesn't help to type right now, but when I cry now, I think of you, Diane, sissy and of course, your beloved Jeb.

When you replied to my pain week, I felt a waive of relief. Then, Rachel replied, offering "The Last Battle", there is Logan, Anna 66 -adding a poem, "I'm Still Here" , Queen of Poop, Shihtzlover850, Pitca-sierra & Buddy's Mom, Sudilar- Killian & Shiloh, luvofallhorses, jazz cat, Cyber-Sibes, to name just a few. These framents, typed onto our moniter screen , are condolences offered to us for the taking. Like hugs through cyberspace.

Let's keep rowing my dear friend at Pet Talk. When you cry real hard, hold onto Diane and dear little Sissy, then, remember me, and all of the kind people who have recognized our sorrow. I will row when you tire, you will row when I tire.
Dont' stop coming to Pet Talk, I will never judge you, never, never, never.

I could not have gotton to this point with out Robroy20 calling me Dot.


God Bless You and Yours!!!! Thinking of Jeb on the 10th!!!!!

First I want to take a second to thank all the kind people that have been where I am,they know they can see a way out of the misty fog that Dot and myself and many others are in.I think I am getting better and here come that wave or that sinking feeling in your gut.Its like a drug that overcomes you.I have the good day ,bad day thing but I am better..
I want to here that Dot is getting better,I worry about here sometimes..Well got to go...Bob

[Dorothy39]

You are so kind, in your sorrow, to worry about me.

I've had such a hard time getting through this muck. I try not to picture Foxy Jean dying on my bed. When I realize that she is actually gone and that I will never see her again, I feel anxiety big time. I force myself to keep busy.

I have to remember what she taught me, what was going on in my life when I found her, along with how much she loved me.

She was with me all the time, like, if I went down stairs to sew, she would look me up, and she would lay underneath my cutting table inside a shallow container of folded material. I expose myself to that room little by little, and I am doing better since telling the world of my loss.

Your pain, so like mine, resonated beyond my humble home and diminished when I learned how to use this web site forum. I was so affraid to laugh again, as though something horrible might happen if I don't stay on guard. If you peronally knew me, you would realize how weird that is because I am such a clown, I love to help people laugh.

Men are stronger people. They have to be.
I"ll think of you as an older brother from God. I have 5 sisters.

I am doing better. I thought of Jeb on the 10th, and, I light a candle each Monday nite in honor of every dog that has ever died. It makes me stronger , too, when I pray for animals, people, situations beyond our control.

Thank-You so much for being here , in cyberspace.


always ,

Dot

Well here I am .Its been over a a week since Jebs passing and I have found that I have to come to PT each morning to say a few words on Jebs behalf.Also to try to help anyone else that has lost a dear friend.
I have so much love to give my furbabies that if I lose one it tears my heart to pieces.I am a gentle man,it bothers me to see a dog running down the road.Or a baby bird that has fell from his mothers care.It seems the older I get the more love I have .Diane and I get closer with each passing day.We care for each other because it makes the caregiver happy.The pets in our life are just like us.If they hurt we hurt.If they are happy we are elated.
Good morning Dot


I will go now...Bob

[robroy20]

It a beautiful day hear,110 today.I wanted to tell you about Sissy.She always stayed with Diane and Jeb with me.Since Jebs passing Sis has been spending alot of time with me.I see her look up on the sofa where Jeb would sleep.She still goes from room to room.If she sees me she will come and lick my tears away.I know shes telling me its ok,don't cry..I am alot better,just over a week.Well I got to do my chores before it to hot..

I will go now... hi Dot......Bob

[Dorothy39]

Oh Sissy, you are taking care of Bob. You are such a beautiful thought for me today.

I can tell, Bob, that you are indeed a gentle person. I don't know how your personality got onto my screen, nor how the sound of your voice was nearby when I felt utter despair.

You and I have so much in common. I am a "caregiver", I took care of my parents, who are now gone. I gave up going to a Community College, quit my job at a Pre-School, so I could take care for them. I will never regret having done so, never, never, never.I have the best Degree now because of it. My husband and I are now caregiving "his" parents. This time around, I am stronger. My Father-in Law took Foxy Jean's death pretty hard, so did my son. Foxy has glued us together pretty darned tight!!!

The love of a dog has to be the most profound beauty ever given to mankind. I am doing so much better every day. I have YOU to thank for that.

May God Bless You, your Diane, and Sissy too.

by the way, My Dad's name is Bob, so is my Father-in -Law's--isn;t that crazy!!!
