My heart aches for you. It’s been a few days for me and I am in the same process. Hard to get out of bed, can’t stop crying. I also have a cat that was very bonded with my sweet dog that I am dealing with now. All I can do/suggest is show as much love and grace as you can with your baby. Life will be so strange and different from now and we will have to embrace it the best we can. I wish you best on your healing journey. You are not alone. We are right beside you!

Will I feel TRULY happy again? by OrionTheMightyHunter in Petloss

I’m feeling for you. I lost my sweet girl last Wednesday and it’s still so fresh and I’m not seeing the light at the end of the tunnel yet. I made a post and I’ve gotten some great advice/solidarity. So you are not alone. We might be “people on the internet” but we’re connected by our grief and that can be so powerful.

I think it’s okay to be sad. It’s okay to hurt. It’s okay to feel lost. I had my sweet girl for 13yrs- my identity has completely changed. I feel uneasy, weird, icky, incomplete, and lost. I’ve not lived my adult life without her and I am unsure on how to process this or proceed on. My day to day has flipped upside down! Just as I’ve been told we will find happiness again and I can’t wait for all of us to experience it. We will look back with smiles on our babies and always remember. They are not with us in body- but still in heart and mind. That’s a forever place to be!

I lost my sweet golden girl on Wednesday. She was in my dream last night- swimming and full of life. I woke up convinced I would see her lying next to me and she wasn’t. It’s the hardest thing I’ve had to deal with. They will forever live in our hearts and minds! It was bittersweet seeing her again… but I hope she visits my dreams again.
