These two pictures of Hannah are priceless! She really looks like she is grinning in the one with the sunglasses! I love the way her ears are perked right up in the first picture! What a face...so much personality! I don't know about you but I really find so much comfort when I look at pictures of Jordan now. So many great times. We have also watched a few videos of our daughter and of course, Jordan is right there! Looking at them really makes me feel so good about him. I also realized how sick he really was when I see how he use to look and act when he was healthy. When we were in the midst of his declining health, I guess we knew he was not feeling well but kind of just hoped for the best. Now I know that he was not meant to live like that. Seeing him in pictures and video really helps. I hope it does the same for you. If these two pictures are an indication of the memories that you have, then I hope you take comfort in them! Take care.

Thanks, Anln, Yes, she was a cutie. I have so many wonderful photos of her, and I am so happy that I do. You are so lucky to have video of Jordan. I wish I had had a video camera or at least taped recorded her little barks and the funniest little "singing" she used to do, especially trying to bite the vacuum cleaner and the broom or mop. She was SO funny and so cute.
I know what you mean about looking at the older photos of them. I have only a few of the night before and Hannah really does look pretty sick in them. It's so hard to see when you live with someone every day that they (we) are getting older. The picture of Hannah that is my avatar is only a little over a year old, and she looks pretty good there compared to how she looks in the one of the night before.
When we still had them, we just HAD to hope for the best because it was so incomprehensible what life would be without them. But now, we know. I didn't know how I'd ever let her go. I didn't think I'd be able to stand it. The reality is, however, worse than what I ever imagined. So sad, so sad. BUT, THEY are not in pain. As somebody on the site said, we took their pain onto ourselves so they would not have to suffer.
Thanks for responding. Like I said, I've moaned so much here, but Hannah and I did have a wonderful 16 years together. There have been times I don't know how I would have made it had it not been for her. I was really blessed. We all were really blessed to have shared the love we had with our precious babies. Take care.

She looks like a movie star. I'm glad that you have lots of pictures of her. I would like to post more to you but like you, I feel uckie....my heart aches for my Cuddly. I need to go to bed and cry myself to sleep, seems the only way to get to sleep lately. Just wear myself out with tears. Will chat with you tomorrow. Good night everyone.
