It was 10 months ago I lost Buck.
Today I lost Bobbie. I can't bear going through this again. I'm heart broken.

I'm so sorry to hear that you are going through this again so soon. I remember you being on here at the same time I was with my Gunner. I know the double heartache so well. We lost our Squiggy 5 months after our Gunner. You don't have enough time to get through the first one and then you lose another. My heart goes out to you through this. Just be kind to yourself and keep posting here. We both know that it helps. I'm sending you hugs and prayers.

Hi, Jud, please permit me to add my sincerest sympathies in the physical loss of your beloved Bobbie. Indeed, losing your beloved Bobbie so quickly after your beloved Buck can intensify the grief journey. Like our forum friend Gunner's Mama I also know how painful it is to lose two beloved companions within a short period of time. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers, Jud, and please let us know how you're doing.

Peace and blessings,

Oh Jud, I'm so sorry to hear of Bobbie's passing!

The heartbreak can seem insurmountable.

Bobbie and Buck are together, and at the same time, they are still with you---just not in their precious physical forms.

Is your sister still a comfort? Do you still have your counselor? And... do you have other pets with you?

Please keep in touch. You have us and we will help you through this horrible grief.

Prayers your way,

Kathy

So sorry for your loss.

I too lost two precious angels within 9 months of each other. Lily died suddenly and unexpected, then we found out a few days later that her sister Hunny had cancer. So she fought that valiantly for those 9 months, but it came back and we had to make that god awful decision to let her go. I don't think I've cried so much as I did in those 9 months. I still cry a lot and Lily died June 2008, Hunny April 2009, each only 8 years old. I still miss them like it happened yesterday so I can relate to how you're feeling, as can most of us. Life sucks. My only consolation was that they were both back together again. I know Hunny missed Lily so very much. I'm crying as I type this. Then George joined them three years ago yesterday. I believed that Hunny sent George to watch over my other dogs.

I found this site the week we had to let Hunny go. I couldn't stop crying that week. Everyone here was so nice and understanding. This is a great place to mourn and heal.

All you can do is take it one day at a time and don't let those "ignorant" people tell you to get over it!! You'll find a lot of people don't want to talk about stuff like this, that's what makes this the best. I had no one to cry on. I know my husband and daughter were hurting too, but they didn't need to cry like I did. I still cry on the way home from work sometimes. I've lost pets before and they have all hurt like crazy, but somehow losing Lily and then Hunny was really difficult.

But time stops for no one and after a while, you learn to live with the pain. Some of that hurt turns into happy memories. After Lily died, we got Izzy. Izzy was surrendered by a puppy mill on the same day Lily died, so maybe Lily gave up her place with our family to allow Izzy the love she deserves. Lily was a rescue too. Lily, Hunny and George are now with my other pets and with my two babies that I lost. My two babies now get to spend their lives with my precious angels.

So, take care and visit this site when you need it. There are some very wonderful people here. I don't come here very often anymore. As much as I would like to help others, sometimes it just seems to much.

I wish you love and healing as you travel through this awful journey called grief.

Take care.

Lynette
