Qorqui,

Six months ago today I was awakened by your usual morning trampling noise followed by a thud and a shaking bed. In your typical way, you tried to jump up onto the bed and missed on your first try. I often worried that you'd hurt yourself slamming your chest into the corner of the bed like that, but it never seemed to bother you.

Six months ago today, before I left for work, I scratched your ears and said "Bye BeBe. You be good puppy. I'll see you tonite."

Six months ago today, while I was driving to work I thought how funny it was that I'd still be calling you "Baby Puppy" in ten years.

Six months ago today I felt the biggest loss and the most grief I've ever felt in my life when I came home to your lifeless body laying along side the driveway.

In the past six months I've learned to mostly function without you here. I still have days when you're about all I think of. Some days I feel like there must be something I'm supposed to be learning from all this, so I spend the day pondering what it could possibly be. Most days though, I'm basically just here. Not really sad anymore but not really happy either. I don't cry every day anymore, but I do still find myself in tears at least a couple times a week. Usually triggered by something seemingly unrelated to you. I still really miss you a lot, and think about you every day.

Mommy says she misses you too. I know she thinks about you because she's been calling Kali by your name at least once every couple days for the past several weeks.

Bye for now BeBe. You be good puppy. I'll see you again when it's time.

I love you Sweetie!
Dad

Dear Tim,

You've written a very touching letter to Qorqui. For me, the first 6 months were the hardest. After the 6 month mark, I really noticed a significant amount of healing that took place. I still miss my little Shiloh more than words can describe, but the searing pain is gone.

I'm thinking of you and Qorqui on her 6 month anniversary.
Kathleen

Tim,
I am sorry I am late posting and I realize that Qorqui's 6 month anniversary has passed.
However, I want you to know that I am thinking of you today and I know that what
you had to endure has been very painful.
I wish you warm thoughts and lots of love today and everyday thereafter....
I lost Dixie the same way, as you know, and I know how incrediby painful it is...
Please know that I am thinking of you.
Love, Dana

Hey Tim;
Thinking about you up here in Canada too..........Quorqui was a lucky puppy to have had you to share her life with.
Smile,

I remember when you first visited LS and my heart was broken with you.

Qorqui's six month tribute is very special.

Those memories will be alive in your heart forever.

My thoughts are with you and Qorqui.

Sincerely,

Litebrez

I am thinking about you on Qorqui's 6 month anniversary. I remember reading about her when you first came to LS. I will say a special prayer for her (and you)...

Thinking of you during this time, Caroline
