Thank you for asking about my dog, Bearzie.

She went to heaven last Thursday. I have been having a really hard time with it, so I haven't been around any where much. Thank you for your prayers, unfortunately it was her time.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. Pets are members of the family and losing them hurts.
This poem has helped me in the past and I hope it does the same for you. God Bless you and Bearzie. heart

The Rainbow Bridge
inspired by a Norse legend

By the edge of a woods, at the foot of a hill,

Is a lush, green meadow where time stands still.

Where the friends of man and woman do run,

When their time on earth is over and done.

For here, between this world and the next,

Is a place where each beloved creature finds rest.

On this golden land, they wait and they play,

Till the Rainbow Bridge they cross over one day.

No more do they suffer, in pain or in sadness,

For here they are whole, their lives filled with gladness.

Their limbs are restored, their health renewed,

Their bodies have healed, with strength imbued.

They romp through the grass, without even a care,

Until one day they start, and sniff at the air.

All ears prick forward, eyes dart front and back,

Then all of a sudden, one breaks from the pack.

For just at that instant, their eyes have met;

Together again, both person and pet.

So they run to each other, these friends from long past,

The time of their parting is over at last.

The sadness they felt while they were apart,

Has turned into joy once more in each heart.

They embrace with a love that will last forever,

And then, side-by-side, they cross over together.

What a lovely poem and with such great sentiment.I already wrote bearzie about losing her baby.Is is heartbreaking. Now I am once again going to tread on Eric's speciality.Here goes:A man was sunbathing naked at the beach and for the sake of civility, and to keep it from getting sunburned, he had a hat over his privates.A woman walks past, and says snickering"if you were a gentleman, you would life off that hat.He raised an eyebrow and replied"It you were'nt so mean and ugly, it would lift itself.Grin

Another joke.If you don't like them, just let me know..A man asks an AMerican Indian what his wife's name was.He replied "She is called five Horses" The man said that was an unusual name for your wife. What does it mean? The old Indian answered ", It's an old Indian name , it means nag,nag,nag,nag, nag..I don't write them, I just send them.Grin

BEARZIE, like everyone else, I am so very sorry for your loss. All of us who have ever loved a pet share in your pain with you now. It is heart breaking to give them up, but thank goodness for the precious memories they leave behind for us. It's hurts too much now to think back, but someday those memories will bring a smile to your face.

NYBABU, thanks for sharing such a moving poem. I love it and I hope someday I get to experience it firsthand!!! What a comforting thought!

Thank you so much Keithfan. I did finally get some sleep last night with the help of some valium and I'm feel much better today. I hadn't slept in a week and I'm sure that was contributing to my depression.

I keep thinking back to the poem and it makes me so happy I hope it is true, thank you again for sharing it with me/us.

bearzie, I am so sorry for poor bearzie's passing, I know it's hard, but be comforted in knowing that you did everything possible for him (or her).... when I lost my beloved dog Girl, 3 years ago, I went into a deep depression. In someways, animals just Love us and need us so unconditionally without judgement, even more so than children or any other family members, I truly feel your loss and just know for sure you will meet again some day.... God Bless, Janie

Thank you, I couldn't agree with you more. She was an unusually good dog.

I wrote Bearzie on Facebook about her loss. It does breakk your heart since they love you so unconditionally.It is like losing a family member. She will be in your heart forever.Take comfort that she is not suffering and is a better place, although I am sure her life with you was a pretty good place to be. Take care and God Bless you and Bearzie.

I'm so glad the poem brought you some comfort. It's a beautiful thought that your beloved pet is healthy again and waiting for you - hope it's true. My Spike will be fifteen in January and just had to have emergency surgery to remove an eye and quite frankly he's handling it better than I am.

I just heard that that a friend of mine's dog passed away. I forwarded her the poem, and I'm hoping it brings her as muc comfort as it brought me.

I hope your baby is doing well. Thoughts and prayers are with you.
