Hi Jan

Your Noushka is so beautiful with here antlers. She looks like a real ham. Hope you had a good day yesterday.

Thanks Madi. It really cheered me up when I saw the picture that Dottie had done.
Had a very busy day today feeding and looking after my family/ It's the first time they've all been here since Noushka left me, so it was very hard at times. Now that everyone has gone and its just the two of us again, back came the sadness.
As you say Madi, lets hope that we can all find some peace and happiness in the new year. It's what our Angels would wish for us.
Thinking of you, love Jan xx

God bless and goodnight my darling Tasha and Noushka. Love you both so much xx
Brutus
oh that pic is adorable with the antlers.

Hi Jan I wanted to write something from all of us here. I know we all share the same feelings of our loss. We all may deal with our grief and guilt different but we all miss and love them the same. I hope Dottie is ok I havent seen any post from her the last couple days. She is truley an Angel for all of us. I do believe our fur and feather angels has sent her to us. I sure hope we here from her soon so that we know she is ok.

Yes , she looks so adorable. Love her so much. Tasha and Noushka used to wear their antlers every christmas, just for a little while, then they would shake their sweet heads to let me know they'd had enough of that nonsense.

Bless you my darling Angel girls. Thinking of you so much, especially today ,as it's little Max's 6th birthday. How you loved it when all the family where together . I know you were with us sweethearts.

Time for bed now, night night and god bless. xx


Love and hugs to all our friends on here and their Angels xx

Good Morning

This is the photo I have as my desktop on my Pc and also the photo I have on my bedside table. It's what I see just before sleep and the first thing I see on waking. It was taken a few years ago as we have a different sofa now(thank goodness you might rightly say ).

As you can see , they loved to be close together, never far apart, bless them.
I have woken up feeling quite empty and so sad again this morning. Maybe it's after all the business of the Christmas period, where I have had lots of 'human' company.
I keep going over and over the fact that my darling Noushka was alone and at the vets when she left us. If only we hadn't taken her in that evening, I wonder if she might still be here. Maybe she gave up, without us there to hug her and comfort her, through her illness. I was so distraught at the time that I didn't really ask the vet all the questions that I now feel I should. We'd only left her in as the vet wanted to do x-rays and further tests. Oh If only I'd known then what was about to happen. I did give her a cuddle, I was lying on the floor of the vets with her, but they called me over to fill in a 'form'. The next thing the nurse was leading her away. I gave her a kiss and told her I loved her, she walked calmly away through that door to the kennel area, my last sight of her.
I explain what happened in my first posting so I won't relate it all again, I don't think I could at the moment, if you read it maybe you can offer me some help. I just feel that I have let my baby down so badly, by not realising how 'ill' she was and by leaving her on her own . The week before she had been her usual healthy self, albeit a little slow, but bless her she was 13 and getting to be a little old lady.
Thanks for reading. I know you all have your sadness to bear and I'm sorry to be so 'down'. But I feel as if I need some help again.
Love and hugs
Jan xx
Rhapsedy
Oh my gosh Jan... Noushka and Tasha are so cute!

Like you, I too think about the questions that I should have asked the vet. Why do we do this to ourselves? You and I were very loving to our animals and gave them the best lives, they knew that we loved them and would do anything for them. You left your darling Noushka at the vet to figure out what was wrong and to get her help, there was no way you could have known she wouldn't make it thru the night. The good thing is that she wasn't sick for very long and that before you left the vet's office you cuddled with her and layed on the floor with her. All that being said I totally understand what you are feeling and I wish I could take away all of the pain.

Love,
Rhapsedy
janika
Thanks Rhapsedy

I have to try and focus on the good times we shared and the fact that Noushka didn't suffer, as you say. That means such a lot to me, especially after watching my darling Tasha suffer at the end and then having to call the vet in to come to our home to end her suffering.
Thanks for you kind words, and understanding.
Love Jan xx
janika
Good Night my darling girls.
We're all wondering where our dear Dottie is. Please send your love and Angel messages to her to let her know that we all think of her and need her to let us know she is ok.
God bless my darlings xx

This is the first picture that Dottie posted for us and she hadn't even seen you, she just knew you're Samoyeds. I couldn't believe it when I saw it, it was just like looking at you both.
Dottie has helped us all so much, and we are all missing her.
Good night and God bless my Angels. Let's hope we see Dear Dottie back on here, making us all smile again, very soon.xx
madi
Yes Jan, I remember that first photo, it's like looking at them isn't it? And where is our angel Dottie? Dottie come back we need you desperately!!

Have a Happy New Year my Darlings Tasha and Noushka, at the Rainbow Bridge. It's been a very sad year for us, as Noushka you left us and then Dear NannaMin. We are all thinking of our Angels.

Lots of love my sweethearts
Your Mummy xx
madi
I can just see Tasha, Noushka and Ulriich on that bridge happily playing together Jan. Ulriich would love them, he would be rolling over and swiping at them with his beautiful paw, with nanaMin looking peacefully on xx

2010 is going to be a happier one for you Jan, you will have a new family member and I would think a new fur baby to love not too long after that. Don't forget who the fur baby's godmother is going to be xx

madi xx
janika
Thanks so much Madi for those lovely, kind words.

Yes we must look forward, and try not to let our hurt and anguish cloud the lives that our dear Angels will want us to cherish and enjoy. To realise that they haven't done anything to 'spoil' or 'ruin' our lives by their leaving us, but that they have enriched our precious lives so much by sharing their lives with us. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say. If we don't live our lives to the full and enjoy each moment as best we can, while we are able, then it almost seems as if our precious Angels through no fault of their own, have caused us to be unable to do that.

I know that all my Angels right back to my first darling Vikki, who left me 46 years ago, were and are only happy when I'm doing ok. They feel our every mood, as I am sure you will all agree.
I'm not very good at putting it into the 'right' words but I do so hope that you all get my meaning.
Depression I know is a terrible thing, and there are times when it is so hard to work through a depressed period. I have had to have medical intervention on a number of occasions, which did get me through. THis forum and all my new friends have helped me work through this. I think sharing and opening up to like minded people who so fully understand the emotions involved, is the key to our recovery. And of course there are the 'professionals' there to help us when we do need that extra support of either medication and or counselling. Whatever we need to do to overcome this period in our lives we must try our best for the sakes of our darling Angels and the people who love and care about us.

Tasha and Noushka I love you so much and you have made my life so much better by allowing me to share it with you both. Be happy sweethearts , mummy will be fine and I know you are always with me. xx

Love and hugs to all of you and to all our precious fur and feather friends and Angels

Hoping 2010 finds you in better spirits...and maybe a white little furry puppy soon? Of course only when you are ready.

Hugs to you Jan and your snow angels,

All my words of advice for us all and I'm afraid I can't practice what I preach . I feel so lost without you again my darling girls. What a very strange Christmas and New Year it's been.I just feel as if a big part of me is missing.

Good night and sweet dreams my darling Angels
All my love
Mummy

Good Morning everyone and my Darling Angels.

Anna (Smokeyladymax) has posted a lovely poem for her darling Max-have you read it ?
It's given me the idea to compile a 'book' of poems and photo's of my Angels, so I feel quite positive this morning. Thanks Anna !
I love the 'shelf' that Sonya has created for her dear Brutus too. It looks so lovely and will be of great comfort to you Sonya, I'm sure. Thankyou for posting the photo on your thread.

Madi you might have to wait a while for your position as ' Furry Godmother'. Hopefully, I'll know when the time is right, and you will be the first to know!

Dottie 'AngelOne Care', if you read this, I send love and hugs to you and your Alex, Buddy and Styx. We miss you, but understand if you need some 'you' time. You work so hard to help everyone on here, and we all appreciate so much what you do for us. Please come back to us when you are able.

Rhapsedy, hope you're doing ok. Thinking of you.
Margi, Ladywolf, hope you're ok, bet you're missing you're ladywolf while you are away, but we know she's in good hands!
Hope you all have a 'good' day today. Thinking of you all and your darling Angels and fur /feather friends.
Lots of love
Jan and my Angels xx

Hi Jan I sent you a thank you on Max's poem. Yesterday was not a good one. I guess you could tell from my words in his poem. I will be so glad when I can write to him with happy memories. I know I have a long way to go yet before that can happen. And one day I wil gather all my post here and do a book especially for my angel.

Thank You for reading my poems and being here for me

Hello Jan,

First of all the pictures are just beautiful!!! I kept saying this one is my favorate no this one or maybe this one. Guess I just like them all!! lol.
I just went back and read your story. I do usually come once a week and post, but don't always read the stories of others. I should tho. I know how much it helped me everytime I had a reply from someone.
Like you said the holiday are really different without our furbabies with us. Will be 2 years for me in June. I remeber that day so clear in my mind. sad.gif

I still have her 2 sisters and mother so i have some comfort in that, but she was my special baby.

Sending you and your angel furbabies many HUgs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Jan and Snow Angels too of course...hope you are doing better today.

I don't know why, but I'm having an awful day...one of the worse in a couple weeks I think. I drove to the park today that we took Brutus to right before the dreadful appointment...don't know why I was drawn to it today...but I was, first time I've been there since he left. It's only about 3 miles from our house. On the way home from work, I just drove past my normal route to get home without even thinking...as I passed the road I needed to take to get home...I was talking to myself, wiping away tears...What the heck is wrong with you Sonya! Before I knew it I had passed another road I should of turned on...so the next road came along...that's the road the park is on...that also leads to my house as well, but definately 3 miles out of the way for me to get home from work. I texted Doug and told him I was stopping at the park....was there about 5-10 mins (it was isolated with single digit temps)...and Doug showed up with two beers. We stood on the look out over the frozen river (freezing our arses off) and drank our Beer and talked about Brutus and all the times we brought him there. I don't know why I wanted to go there...it was like my subconscience was taking me there...very wierd...and very wierd how much I've been crying today...I was doing fairly well...I mean I do cry everyday...but not like this...not constantly. I just can't figure out why today...i'ts not a special date...one day before 7 weeks, but nothing remarkable...I just don't get it...maybe I'm losing it...lol

I know what you mean about words flowing so easy to others, but yet...you can't convince yourself of what you say. I feel the same way sometimes.

Anyhow,
Hugs and thinking of you, Tasha and Noushka.

Good Morning Tasha and Noushka and all our friends on LS

I had a really good sleep last night < first in some time. I felt you were close to me my darlings, As like many of our friends on here I had a really 'bad' day yesterday and I think you knew I needed you to be there for me.

I hope we all feel more positive today. We have lots to think about, such as how is our dear Dottie, and Dear Ladywolf at the vets today, so lets get those positive vibes going, as many have said , we could do with some good news on here.

Madi , I know you like Pink and purple, but don't think that would match Dotties big 'Wings' somehow.(see AngelOneCare thread for lovely picture by Sonya)

Sonya , That picture is so beautiful, where did you find it, was it this 'photobucket' you all talk about? I will have to take a look .
Well the sun is shining, lovely blue sky, but sub zero temps here in Uk. Might wrap up and go for my 'forest walk' again. See how many dogs I can get to cuddle on the way. I'm getting quite a reputation round here. Dog stalker !!


Let's hope today is a 'better' one for everyone.
Love to you all
Jan and my Angels x

Jan...I'm so glad you had a good nights sleep...I know your girls are happy too. smile.gif I hope today was good for you, today was better for me...I'm still hanging in there.

photobucket is just a website where you store your photos...for instance, instead of downloading them right to LS, I download them to my photobucket account and then just copy and paste the link here ...that way the photos are always there, to repost them without downloading, post to a different website without having to download or whatever...I believe you can order prints on there too. You can make your photo album on photobucket public or private. Say you wanted to email a bunch of pics to family members...instead of emailing each relative, you can download the pics to photobucket and give your friends/relatives the link to your album and they can view it (with a password of your chosing if you go private).. It's a free account. I just googled "angel with a parrot graphic" and that's how I found the pic...then I right clicked on it and saved it to my computer and downloaded it to photobucket.

I'm hoping again that tonight you have a restful nights sleep with beautiful dreams of your angel girls. Did you go "dog stalking" today?

Hugs,
Sonya
janika
Thanks Sonya, I will take a look at Photobucket.

I had quite a good night again , and yes I did dream of my girls. I know I did but I just can't remember what the dream was. I just knew they were there and woke with quite a good feeling , so it must have been a good one.

Didn't go 'dog stalking' as planned as my dear Daughter who is 35 weeks pregnant ended up in hospital being monitored all day. Her blood results are showing slightly abnormal, so they are keeping a watch on her. Also she was having pains, which turned out to be Braxton Hicks. They let her come home and she has to go back tomorrow, for more tests and monitoring. So we were on stand by to look after the two grandchildren.

Oh dear , just hope all will be ok. Poor girl, she doesn't have easy pregnancies.

Tasha and Noushka, please look out for our darling girl and the new baby.
Hope you all are doing ok, and having better days.
Thinking of you all, and all the new visitors to the forum who are in so much pain right now.
Love Jan and my Angels xx
madi
"Dog stalking" that sounds so funny Jan. I must say I'm guilty of that too, dog stalking, kitten stalking, baby stalking, nothing is safe with me around either. I'm so glad you are getting some good sleeps now and having happy dreams about your angels.
I sympathise with your daughter, I had Braxton Hicks pains for months with my pregnancies. Doctors called it an irritable uterus, but I must say there was more than just my uterus that was irritable by the time I gave birth I can guarantee that.
I'm sure those dogs in the forest are looking forward to auntie Jan resuming her walks again, they would love you I'm sure xx

madi xx
janika
Thanks Madi, hoping her blood results are better tomorrow and everythings ok. She will be on the monitor again, so we'll be looking after the grandchildren.
You will be just getting up to start your day, and it's time for bed for me now. I hope you have a good day.
Goodnight all, thinking of you and your Angels.
Goodnight Tasha and Noushka my Angels, God bless my darlings xx

Hi Jan
I'm so sorry about the loss of both of your dogs -- I can't imagine feeling this way twice! But I know the love that they give us is greater than this pain I'm feeling now, but I don't know if I'll ever be able to go there again -- you mention that your dogs loved the snow -- our Westie was a snowdog too. In fact, the first winter that we had her she loved to stick her head in the snow so much that she wore the pigment off her little black nose. I was scared when I saw that and rushed her to the vet right away -- he asked me if she put her head in the snow alot and when I told him she did -- he said she had was they called "snow nose" and that the pigment would come back in the spring -- and sure enough - every spring her nose got black again! So I know what you mean when you say you dreaded the first snowfall.
The day after we put Sammy down I was glad it snowed to cover up all her little tracks in the yard -- it was so painful to look at them and yet I was torn because it was snowing and there would never be little Sammy tracks in the snow again. Kind of like my husband was sad to wipe the nose marks off the windows in the vehicles after she was gone -- he knew he'd never be able to do that again.
I'm finding there are so many "firsts" that you have to get through in order to come out the other side of this pain.
My thoughts and prayers are with you -- I hope you feel better soon.
Sharon
janika
Thanks Sharon for you kind words and thoughts. I'm thinking of you and your dear Sammy. Did you see the picture of my Noushka in the snow further back on this thread, snow covered nose just as you describe your darling Sammy.Bless them I'm sure they will be playing together now in as much snow as they can get, along with my angel dog Tasha.

Noushka my darling , it's 4 months today since you left us to join darling Tasha at Rainbow Bridge. I am missing you so very much my sweetheart. It's snowing so much today. Your garden is covered in a sparlking blanket of the snow you and Tasha love so much. It looks quite beautiful, but oh if only I could see your beloved pawprints in that snow.
All my love to you my Noushka Angel and my dear sweet Tasha Angel.

God bless my darlings

Hello my darling Tasha and Noushka, we've been out making snowmen with the grandchildren , I know you were there with us sweethearts. Love you both so much.

I thought I'd just post this beautiful Pic that Dottie sent to us a while back. Love you both so much my darling Snow Angels.

Dottie if you read this, We just want to say, a great BIG THANKYOU for all those wonderful pictures, poems, songs and videos you posted for us, and your wonderful words of wisdom, which helped so many of us, right when we needed them.
We think about you every day and hope that you and your Alex, Buddy and Styx are doing ok.

Thought you would all love to see my Baby Tasha. Been looking through all my photo's and found this.
She sure was a cutie. This was taken at the breeders house a few weeks before we brought her home.
Noushka, we didn't know you as a baby as we rescued you, but I bet you were a beauty too.
Love you both so much.

Jan--

Baby Tasha is just about the cutest thing I have ever SEEN! How miraculous, that we're permitted to have these little creatures, and big creatures too, in our lives!

Like you, Jan, I so wish that I had a photo of Ladywolf as a pup, but I got her at about age three. I have to content myself with looking at movies about wolves and their young 'uns--Lady's about 80 or 90% Alaskan Grey Timberwolf, so she's pretty close to the "real thing..."

Madi, maybe the idea is for you NOT to control yourself!!!!

Margi and the Wolf

janika
Thanks for all of the lovely comments.

Hope you are all ok.

Thinking of you all.

Goodnight and God bless to my Darling Angels and to you and all your Angels and fur/feather babies.
