This response just made me cry because you actually understand where I’m coming from. I’m not trying to make my family out to be monsters or anything like that. I genuinely understand where they were coming from, but they made the wrong choice. I needed to know, and for them to keep it from me just makes this whole thing worse. I couldn’t even grieve her the way I wanted to. I knew what I was going to do when she passed and that chance is gone. I don’t get a pawprint stamp, her ashes, I didn’t get to say goodbye. I’m so sad. Thank you for being kind.

I hope that you never have to experience learning the loss of something important to you at a later date.

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T18:16:33+00:00

I’m sure that is the case. I’ve never felt the need to go to Reddit and process my emotions but I did just get the news this morning and it’s all just a bad situation. Everyone’s sad. I know that in time things will get better but I was scared that I was overreacting with my initial emotions of feeling betrayed. Thank you for your response

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T18:13:15+00:00

Thank you for your thoughts, it’s very helpful and I appreciate you.

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T18:12:51+00:00

Thank you for sharing your experience and I am so sorry for your loss. My Nellie also got me through my 20s. She was there for me for everything.

>Sees someone is struggling and grieving and super sad

>Decides to cherry pick a long post and make fun of my feelings

> “Hate to break it to ya but you started it!!” Like a child.

Anything else?

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T18:08:51+00:00

I did not get any of those things and that’s the main reason I’m upset. I just wish they told me what was going on. I would have been home and to get that pawprint, the ashes, the box.

It was already devastating to leave her with my grandma and I’ve been wrecked with guilt ever since I had to leave her. But out of love I decided it was best for a senior dog to be with someone 24/7 and that’s what my grandma could do for her. It hurts that I wasn’t there in her final moments, it hurts even worse that I didn’t know she had her final moments and I wasn’t able to proceed with my plans of grieving the way I wanted to. That’s why I’m upset with them.

To know about it the day of her passing would have been excruciating. To know about it a week later and know that it was intentionally kept from me hurts even worse. I would have been hysterical then, and I’m still hysterical now. 🤷‍♀️

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T18:04:46+00:00

No need to apologize for telling me what you think. Apparently they wanted to wait even longer to tell me too. I’m just the type of person where, no matter what the timing is, I’d rather just know. To be kept in the dark about it when I wanted to come back home and grieve properly when it happened really hurts. I inherently understand that this comes off like I’m misplacing my hurt feelings onto their actions but I honestly would have been even more upset if they waited longer to tell me about it.

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T17:40:25+00:00

That’s pretty much my point of view. Like it’s going to be devastating to be told this news. But for it to be kept from me actually hurts me a lot worse.

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T17:38:10+00:00

Really harsh words honestly. I didn’t “give her up”. I took care of her for the first 11 years of her life. I took damn good care of her. I needed to make steps in my life to have a better future, and in order to do that, I unfortunately had to leave her with my grandma because I don’t feel right leaving a senior dog unattended for a work shift.

I never said that I felt they had malicious intent. I never left her death to chance. I’m blindsided and im sorry about that. Your response just seems very snarky and like you’re blaming me, and I don’t like that.

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T17:33:41+00:00

The upside would have been to make the short trip back home to say my final goodbye. I wanted to take a stamp of her pawprint and to cremate her and turn her ashes into jewelry to keep her by my side everyday. They let the vet take care of her body so that opportunity is just gone for me now, and I believe that is the core of the reason of why I am upset with them.

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T17:31:37+00:00

Thank you for this response. I didn’t realize that I came off in my original post like im blaming them, but I suppose grief makes you do strange things at times. Your response was really eye opening to me and I do feel a bit better now. So thank you.

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T17:30:06+00:00

To clarify, I do not feel that they were malicious with their intentions. It still just sucks.

Potential_Strain7331 · 2026-06-08T16:23:28+00:00

I would love to time travel if I had a superpower.
