I don't know if this makes you feel better, but I also just dreamt about my baby once in the last 3 months since he died. In the dreams I kept reviving him, he would be alive for an hour and then he would die again, just like a Groundhog Day, repeating it all over again.
All sort of crazy and...
So sorry for your loss. But believe me I can understand you, as many others here can.
Your feelings of guilt are not any different from the ones that most of us had.
I am still dealing with my share of guilt, I was with my baby whole night and early morning, through what was a very, very mild...
Dear MerlinsMom, I am so sorry for your loss and the way it happened as it obviously pains you greatly.
I wish I could say some magic words to make you feel better, but there are none, except that most of the people on this site have gone through something similar once before. Meaning, you are...
Well, 10 days ago I rescued a very ill cat who was malnourished, had a temperature, cold an inch and a half big nail in her hind legs and her leg was really smelling and bald patches over her skin.
After 5 days of therapy she seemed to be eating fine and she seemed much better.
Anyways 2 days...
I am so sorry for your loss.
She was such an adorable, lovely girl and as you said, you will miss her badly. We always miss them the most, but they are happy to move on to the other world, to new places, wherever that may be. They don't fear death and they are always prepared for it.
Be brave.
Dear Lizzie, I know exactly how you feel. It has been 6 weeks and just last few days I have started dreaming my boy. He was enormous part of my 35 year old life and I know exactly what you are saying. I have never lost anyone where the pain would be so unbearable.
Yes, the pain gets raw and...
He was such a loveable boy. I can understand your pain. For me it has been 45 days only. It still feels like I have dreamt all last 14 years of my life where he was still a part of it. Now it seems I just woke up and the dream is gone.
For people who don't have children, like me, it is really...
I am so sorry for your loss. She was so adorable and just so beautiful. I certainly wish you all the best. She might have been with you for only 3 years, but you will have her in your mind for the rest of your life.
I do hope that pain isn't too hard on you.
All best.
I am so sorry for your loss, believe me when I tell you that most of us here have gone through this and can totally relate to how you are feeling at this point.
It is hard, I will not sugarcoat it. It has been 45 days since I lost my furry friend and I still cry every single day, so if you were...
Yesterday it was 40 days.
They went so fast, they went so slow, but I survived them somehow.
There is not a minute, a second that you are not on my mind, even when I think I am not thinking about you, I actually am. I do. Always. And sometimes I am tougher, sometimes I don't break and cry, and...
Dear catconcern,
I would love to tell you not to blame yourself, but it is hard as our brain always finds a way to question itself, decisions we made, things we did, so this is something that we who are grieving have to deal with somehow.
My baby died five weeks ago, exactly at this minute...
I feel like I have lost him so many times before and had so many different versions of him in that time. I don't think I have loved anyone as much as I loved him. Especially in the last couple of years when his walking deteriorated and he needed so much more of me. I would never ever have...
Hey PHarber-Murphy, that was very kind of you, to follow up on how I was. I really appreciate it.
I didn't go to vet or ask him anything, but according to his first email which I sent a day after my beloved baby died, he probably was in ending renal phase which triggered a very mild but ongoing...
You know, I am sad by what I realised today, but also I am somewhat very, very slowly accepting everything and putting things in perspective.
Also, what is interesting is that certain memories from the past are coming to life and I am starting to remember more and more of the last 14 years as...
Well I passed that phase.... Today is exactly 1 month since he died.
Now I know he was in status epilepticus. A very mild state of epilepsy, it took me hours to realise that, but that night I did nothing, except gave him tablet for epilepsy and strokes his nose and hold his head whole night...
PHarber-Murphy The thing is he would have laid there perfectly still as he was not able to move for some time now due to the original brain issues... for me seeing him dead was the same as being alive, he laid there.
The only thing I know is he was getting colder by the hour and we could not...
I just had a revelation why I keep blaming myself.... his tongue was out, purple, his eyes dillated, he was limp... when I saw him I did not offer him first aid.
That is my issue. I just took him in my arms running to my neighbour in hopes she would take me to the vet... I was in shock and...
