..

I understand your pain. When I lost my most precious heart Freddy--the love of my life-- last November, I couldn't get out of bed for three days. I wanted to die.

How lucky you are to understand the gift Boo is in your life and to appreciate the beauty of her soul, the wisdon she gave you and the magestic presence she had--and still has--in your life. She is part of your soul and not even cancer can take that away. The earthly body has passed and now the love remains, part of you, forever.

A candle is lit for Boo tonight. My heart is with you.

I understand the pain you are feeling that is one common thread we all share. I had to pts my precious Bichon Raggs almost 16 July,5th. I am much better now but for the first few weeks I really felt dead inside like no emotion then sudden crying and overwhelming sadness and emptiness where my heart is suppose to be. I still feel that in short spurts daily but am able to cope. He was such an important part of my life and loved me more than any human could. In my case he was my empty nest dog and I doted on him completely, but what I take away from all of this is all the wonderful years of love and joy. I am at the stage that I have forgotten how bad shape he was in and wonder if I could have just kept him untill he just died in his own , but in my heart I know that it would have been for my own selfish want. The worse thing about Raggs growing old and sick was watching him be uncomfortable I just could not stand that and see him in any pain. But it is all over now and I just wish I could do it all over with him start anew as an 8 week old puppy. It just went by so fast. You too will feel better just continue to post your heart out I find writing things out helps and seems to keep them alive. I know when I lost my Mother 20yrs ago I felt as long as I kept talking about her she was not gone and I feel the same about my Raggs. Hope you feel better soon
