I lost my lady two years ago today.
Definitely one of the worst days of my life.
She was a very good thing, a very positive thing in my life.
It is not fair that I am expected to continue without her.
Life is not fair.
She was such a good soul, I know she is in heaven ad I know she is happy and I know we will be together again--but the anguish and pain is still devasting to be without her.
Who will lick my wounds inflicted by my co-workers when I get home from work.
How will I have strength to continue.
She is my srength.
Yes, I am so grateful that I had her.
Yes, she gave me everything--she gave me her life.
There is nothing more one could ask from her.
She was a perfect creature--she would have easily laid down her life for me--no questions asked.
Thank you, God, for giving this great and wonderful creature to me.
My Coco Lu:
Thank you for everything--I will always love you.
I cannot wait until we are together again.
Coco Lu at Discovery Park in Seattle--My beautiful lady--Thank you for saying you would be my dog. |
As caretakers how do we take care of ourselves?
We can acknowledge our very real and unending pain.
We can do soemthing nice for ourselves.
The Seattle Animal Shelter has a zoom meeting on Thursday afternoons open to everyone.
Listening to others talk about their beloved ones and their feelings was helpful to me.
