I just wanted to post in here that there is a new Sub-Forum to the Rainbow Bridge Forum called Grief Support. Please feel free to use this sub-forum for any help or tears you may want to share about any of our departed Golden love ones.
I believe Debles recommended and it is such a great idea. We all know there are going to be times we need this section. It helps so much to have people who understand and truly sympathize with our loss.
Great Idea as its so hard when they go and some people think you need to just get on with things but when the house feels empty and your heart is breaking then its very difficult.I didnt grieve for too long for my first and second retrievers but the third one well i am still upset now.even though i have a new addition something is missing in my life.I try not to think about it as that makes it worse.
Thank you guys so much for doing this. It has been such a hard year here with so many beloved goldens going to The Bridge.
It helps so much to know there is a place to share your feelings when you need to. Everyone here is so wonderful and supportive and many of us know how hard it is.
No one has used this section yet but I am so glad it is here.
I feel I am grieving even though Selka is very much alive and HERE.
It is so difficult dealing with a terminal diagnosis. I go back and forth between crying , feeling my anger at this ugly disease at the unfairness and then back to telling myself to live in the moment as Selka has always role modeled for me. He is enjoying the pain reduced time he has, accepting what he can and can't do and smiling the entire time. I can learn so much from him. He is so much more evolved in his spiritual journey than I am. He is in the moment and only knows /cares about what is happening NOW.
I need to shut off my brain to the past and the future (since none of us know when our time will come) and relish the joy of today and my dear beloved boy who is here with me now.
I love the idea too. I noticed the new sub-Forum a few days ago but no one had started a thread yet. Nice to know how it came to be. Good Idea Deb. I do have a question though. Can we grieve for our human families here also or should we keep this section for our beloved pets only?
this is a great idea!
Glad that it's here.
People may still use the Golden Ret. Rainbow Bridge topic though because they are used to posting and sharing their grief there.
