I just cannot believe this.

[Kater]

Jess, I am so sorry that you have to go through this nightmare. There aren't words to adequately express how very sorry I am that this happened. I know you feel terribly cheated. Please accept my (((HUGS))) and try to find some peace in all this.

The following poem helped me cope when I lost my dog so suddenly and at the hands of another. I hope it brings you some peace also.

MEMORIES
by Jennifer Graham

THEY SAY MEMORIES ARE GOLDEN,
WELL MAYBE THAT IS TRUE;
BUT I NEVER WANTED MEMORIES,
I ONLY WANTED YOU.

A MILLION TIMES I'LL NEED YOU
A MILLION TIMES I'LL CRY.
IF LOVE ALONE COULD HAVE SAVED 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 ELSE CAN EVER FILL.

IF TEARS COULD BUILD A STAIRCASE,
AND HEARTACHE BUILD 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 BACK ONE BY ONE,
THE CHAIN WILL LINK AGAIN.

Kater,
That was just so beautiful, I hope that comforts her, I know it sure does hit home. "IF LOVE ALONE COULD HAVE SAVED YOU,
YOU NEVER WOULD HAVE DIED. " That can apply to somebody that has lost a beloved pet, or a beloved person. I know this has to make Jesse feel better, because I just explained the feeling I have also.

I just know that describes how she feels right now. Beautiful!!!

[Dogz]

Oh, Jess. I am almost to tears. I am so sorry it had to happen this way. I feel your pain. RIP Max, have fun at the RB.

Kater- That is beautiful. Just beautiful. I also love this part:
IF LOVE ALONE COULD HAVE SAVED YOU,
YOU NEVER WOULD HAVE DIED.
But it is all nice, thank you for sharing that.

Oh Jess, I'm so sorry that is really hearthbreaking, and my eyes are all watery now. Its just too sad.
Kater- that is really beautiful.

[primabella]

I don't fully understand the situation here, but I offer my condolences. I'm so sorry for your loss, Jess. I wish you the best and hope Max makes a speedy trip to the Bridge.
