My dear Luba,

A few days after you died you came to me in a dream. In the dream you said that you would come and get me some day, but only after you got Falkor.

Today I pray that the day you come and "get me" will happen immediatley after you "get" Falkor.

This world is too sad. You were smart to leave. Just don't forget me.

Oh Steph Your words although few in this post just gripped my soul and I can began to grasp what it will surely feel like when I lose my little Snookie Cookie. Maybe at times you think that no one cares about you but please believe me I do. I was hoping you got more words of encouragement acknowledging the pain you are feeling on the 6 month mark of losing your wonderful little girl.

There was only one other time I felt I wanted to leave this world too and that was when I lost my precious mother. If you click on my website you can read about her.

You are in my heart and on my mind and I send you hugs. Yes, sometimes this world is cruel and it is often times a sad world we live in, some people are sadistic and many are to busy to care, but thank God there are also decent kind loving people on this earth too. Ones that will reach out with a loving hand to pick us up and set us back on our feet again when the pain becomes to much for us. I'm glad I have found wonderful people here on LS it has restored my faith in people.

Steph I wish love and blessing on your life. Hold on my friend and share some memories of dear sweet Luba your little Sweetie. One thing you can count on in this world is the love of our babies and they Steph will never forget us. I am willing to listen, to cry with you and laugh with you. Put your hand in mine and let me help you through. I care!!!!!!!!!
Love, Ann

Dear Steph,

I think our furbabies are sent to us to teach us how to love and how sad if our ability to love dies with them.

I have become a healer since loosing my girls, I try so hard to give to whomever will allow me to, unfortunately we have all learned that life ends at our front doors and we find it hard to let our neighbours in and give to each other.

Have you ever noticed how when you walk your dog’s people stop and talk to you, no one talks to you if you have no dog with you?
Have you noticed how fresh the air is when you walk them in the winter.
Have you noticed how quiet it is at night when you take them for their last pee before bed?
Or the sunrise on the rare occasion you were up early enough to take them out at that time?
These things are still there even after our babies have gone.
Yes the world is so very sad but we have the ability to put a smile on someone’s face if only we tried.

We that have been privileged and learned to love so deeply have learned that the world needs that love to live on THE WORLD NEEDS YOU and the lessons you have been taught need to be passed on.

I know you are sad but life is precious move upward learning from you grief that it is now your turn to pass on that love to someone else.

Love Sue

Thank you so much Ann, Denise and Sue.

I'm still feeling incredilbly sad, so I'm not going to write much, but your words mean more to me than I can say.

I'm sad for so many reasons, but Christmas is especially tough because I lost someone very close to me on Christmas Day 2001. Every year the Christmas season makes me relive the sadness.

Sue,
That was a very special posting you have just written. One of those things I beleive to be a "truth of life". I've heard it said that you can only give what you've been given. I am finding this to be true, we are here to learn...the good and the bad, because truely without the bad, how could we apreciate the good? even in the pain of it all. Bitter sweet sometimes isnt it. Thanks, Pamela and Moose
