After 7 months of struggle , Grace passed to the bridge today 12-16-2013. I want to thank all of you for the support and advice through these 7 months... she was my world for 16 years and after going through all kinds of feellings about her cancer, now all i feel is emptiness... i look for her everywhere and everything reminds me of her. l know i will never ger over her loss, she was one of a kind, i cant go through this pain ever again...

DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND WEEP

I AM NOT THERE, I DO NOT SLEEP

I AM A THOUSAND WINDS THAT BLOW

I AM THE GIAMOND GLINTS ON SNOW

I AM THE GENTLE AUTUMNS RAIN

WHEN YOU AWAKEN IN THE MORNING'S HUSH

I AM THE SWIFT UPLIFTING RUSH

OF QUIET BIRDS IN CIRCLED FLIGHT

I AM THE STARS THAT SHINE AT NIGHT

DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND  CRY

I AM NOT THERE, I DID NOT DIE...

IN LOVING MEMORY OF GRACE

I'm so sorry for your loss of your furry child. 


Imagine her now, the pain and suffering is gone, she is healthy and young again, but of course you are left with the emptiness that will be there forever.

It surely feels that way now, it's so fresh and new, take all the time in the world to grieve. The time will come when you won't feel so hollow and empty, because the memories will come and fill your empty heart. I know it's impossible to believe, but it will happen.

But for now, cry your aching heart out. Day by day, you will make it through to the time when forever isn't really forever, just seems very far away.

RIP Grace, you were so loved.

I am so sorry for your loss.  Grace lives on in your heart forever, she will always be with you.  I hope that your pain will fade with time and give space for happy thoughts and memories of your precious friend.

my deepest sympathy on this sad day.i have had to go through cancer both with mom n pops, and my good ole stew cat.it hurts so deeply when we lose a valued member of the family be it human or our furry family members.the hurt is the same.i find comfort in knowing one day my time will come to pass you bridge, and in a perfect universe will be reunited with all critters near and dear that have went before me.i dont mean to offend ppl who may think this is sacrilege, but all beings that leave this world go somewhere.lets hope we wind up in the same place.remember grace for what she is to you still, not some memory to fade away.grace will be in your heart always, and now she is not suffering.grace wouldnt want you sad ang in such grief.bet were she still around in the physical realm she would be giving you comfort as she did before.apologies for not being good at typing.heres a big ole country boy hug for ya.bless you.

Please accept my condolences, and the knowledge that she will be waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge. Our hearts take a long time to heal and time is the only thing that helps. She was greatly loved and loved you in return and it hurts so bad because you loved so much. You will never 'get over' her, but remember and hold her in your heart forever, and some day come to a place where you can remember her with smiles instead of tears. Your precious baby would not want you to be so sad over her death but to celebrate the life you had together. RIP beautiful Grace!

Hello,

I did not see or read your other posts about Grace and the cancer, but I just wanted to say that I am very sorry for your loss. Its never easy to lose a pet, and its even more painful when the loss is due to illness such as cancer. We lost our first tuxedo boy of 14 years to squamous cell and the decision to let him go was very difficult.

Like you, I thought I would never get over the hurt but time has lessened it. Now and then I still feel some 'if only' regret. But I also feel that Gustav is in a much better place. We buried Gustav on our property, among my gardens. He is always close to our hearts.

Your pain is great right now, but in time it will lessen. Take care.

My condolences. In time, you'll think more of all the happiness those 16 years brought both of you, and less about the past 7 months. You won't ever forget her, but the pain will become less acute. RIP, Grace.
