I miss you...I love you...A thread to talk to your Angels at the Bridge

[magiclover]

I'm having a hard time finding an outlet to talk to about my girl. People are understanding around me but they don't want to keep hearing about Magic all time. (And I'm not talking about GRF.) But what I really want and need is to just talk to her, and put into words whenever I need to, how I felt, how I feel, how I miss her. I want to share what is going on in our life now as I would if she were standing by my side. I know there are countless others out there who are grieving the loss of their babies and are afraid that they will be forgotten in the hustle and bustle of life.

So with this thread please feel free to talk directly to your babies, tell them what you need to tell them as many times and as often as you need to. And know that so many of us feel this with you. I hope this provides many of us with some healing and a place to be heard whenever we need it.

Magic,

This morning Kelsey dropped big chunks of her muffin on the floor and Daddy had to actually call Jazz over to clean it up off the floor. I know that would have never happened on your watch sweetheart. Nobody beat you to a crumb or a scrap.

Miss you my sweet angel.

Thank you so much for starting this thread for all of us to talk to our furkids that have gone to the Rainbow Bridge.

Our sweet Smooch would never have left a crumb on the floor either.
Smooch, you loved to eat and would never even leave a kibble in your bowl-that's how I knew your were sick, when you didn't want to eat.
Snobear, Tonka is laying his head on the rung of the kitchen chair, just like you used to do! Mommy and Daddy miss and love you both so much-now go and play with Magic!!

On Friday I had to pts my cat blizzard, a white cream point siamese with bright blue eyes. He had a mass on the roof of his mouth (developed in only a few weeks without my knowledge). I did notice weight loss and behavior change, but did not realize he was starving to death because of not being able to eat or drink. I still have 2 cats and 2 goldens, but he was the bully, feisty one of the bunch.

Blizzard,
I miss you, you never let me hold you but you'd curl up at my feet on the bed. You would let me pet and stroke you until you got tired and then would bite me. I miss your Pi** and vinegar spirit. We had a fire in the fireplace last night and i miss you lounging right next to the fireplace.
Mommy and daddy miss you, so do moose and angel because you thought you were a golden and ran around the house with them.
we miss you

Magic,

The other day Daddy and I took Jazzy on your favorite walk around the castle. We were throwing her ball like usual and she ignored all the other doggies like she always does. You know she is all about her ball. All of sudden she stopped and froze, looking in the distance. There was a Golden who looked so much like you and I'm sure that Jazz thought it was you. She took off running towards the dog and you could tell by her body language the disappointment she felt when she realized it wasn't you. It was a bit heartbreaking to watch. It turns out that it was Nellie, our neighbors dog. Your sister really misses you sweetheart, just like we do. I hope you are having fun with all your friends and Grandma and Grandpa Lou.

Love, Mommy

Just wanted to tell you that I'm so sorry about your beautiful girl Magic. When I read the post above, it made me so sad for you and Jazz. I know that had to be so difficult for her. The elation that she thought it was Magic and the heartbreak that it was not. They grieve just as we do. We lost our Golda on 4/7/2007. Even though it has been so long, we think of and miss him every single day. Max and Di had a very difficult time when he left for the bridge. The ache for them never goes away. But as time goes by, we smile more than cry over the memories. We completely understand the yearning to remember them and discuss them and keep them alive. We experienced the same with even close friends who had pets. Until you loose a special one, it is hard to understand how difficult it is to loose them and how vivid they will always be in our lives.

Maingirl, I'm so sorry that you lost your kitty, Blizzard. They all have their unique print that they leave on our heart. He sounded like such a character. I can just imagine him running around the house with your goldens. RIP Blizzard.

Hay Tucker (Big Red),

I think about you every day. It seems like it was just yesterday that I could pet your beautiful head and in reality it's been 2yrs. I still consider myself one of the luckiest people because that day over 15yrs ago you picked me to be your mommy by chewing on my shoes. I should of known then what kind of crazy, fun, and adventures we would have together. I cherish every memory and every picture. Your younger brother Cooper who you have never met looks and acts so much like you - I know you sent him to us. Tanner thanks you because he was so sad when you left and now he can wrestle and play. It's funny to see Cooper play with Tanner and annoy him like he did you - I tell him payback!! Well buddy - I just want you to know that you will forever and always be my heart. Love mommy.

Boys,

Always forever, I love you. You made me the person I am today, and of course I wouldn't have young Jacks if it weren't for the wonderfulness of you. You are all together in my dreams and look and smell and feel as scrummy as you ever did in life, so I assume that's some great message from the beyond that you are all together and staying close to me.

Love,

Me.

I miss you Paul and Simon. Every morning when I drive to work I pass your vet hospital and can't help but think about the good and bad times we had there together. It makes me sad that it's also the place where we had to say goodbye, but I'm getting better at trying to focus on the positives.

I love you Paul and Simon. Daddy misses you SO MUCH.
