I cried when you wrote about Tina's decline, the realization that it was necessary to give her this act a gentle death, and when you wrote about walking - blocks home afterward. I've been through this with my cats Fluffy (2006) and Maggie (2012)- and more times with my friends. and we grieve over our lost geese and deer...there is I feel a special place in God's heart for you and for all of us who love these little ones, even when we know that we will lose them. I also Firmly believe that not only our animal companions but every creature we have loved are restored to health - and waiting for us at the "Rainbow Bridge" Mary Castrovillanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2528682233619448192.post-69001130622741473492014-09-03T12:08:58.875-04:002014-09-03T12:08:58.875-04:00Thank you so much, Jeffrey. The understanding and ...Thank you so much, Jeffrey. The understanding and compassion of you and others is so immensely helpful. It is very hard getting used to life without Tina. Sometimes, when Chance is lying down, I "see" Tina and then have to realize she is no longer here. That is very difficult. But, on the other side of that, there are also all the beautiful and funny memories of Tina of which there are so many. In the end, it is those we have to hold on to as they so outnumber the pain and grief of loss. We are ultimately blessed who can derive so much joy, sharing, pleasure, companionship and yes, even frustrations with our animals. Strange in retospect how the so-called, "frustrations" later become funny. :)<br /> PCAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17396232670224427135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2528682233619448192.post-84437231987648083512014-09-02T15:23:53.338-04:002014-09-02T15:23:53.338-04:00I'm sorry to hear of this Patty--I know all to...I'm sorry to hear of this Patty--I know all too well what you're going through. You will make it--time heals everything. But you should also be PROUD--how many Tinas are there in the world who weren't taken in by special people like you. She is now free from old age and pain, and maybe she will be there to greet you across the Rainbow Bridge. I know my Randi will be waiting there too. jeffreynoreply@blogger.com
