      Hi Shelly, hope u are doing better. I haven't been on line as much due to chemo treatments. Wow, they drain you pretty fast. Just wanted to let u know that I appreciate you and your support. I'm half way through my chemo now and than start radiation, providing everything goes as the doctor plans. Have a great weekend.

      I KNOW JUST HOW YOU FEEL. I LOST MY 2 LITTLE YORKIES 2 MONTHS APART. I LOST BELLE WHO WAS 8 YRS.OLD ON MARCH 24 THEN ON MAY 18 I LOST MY LITTLE MIA WHO WAS JUST 6. LOOSING ONE LOVED ONE IS PAINFULL ENOUGH BUT TO LOSE 2 SO CLOSE IS JUST UNBEARABLE. MY HEART STILL ACHES FOR THEM. I MISS THEM SO MUCH. AND YES THEY WERE TO YOUNG TO DIE. SO I DO FEEL YOU LOSS IT SOUNDS ALMOST JUST LIKE MINE. SO I AM HERE IF YOU WANT TO TALK SINCE WE HAVE THE SAME LOSS AND I AM SURE THE SAME FEELINGS ABOUT OUR LITTLE BABIES THAT ARE NOT HERE WITH US ANYMORE. IT IS REALLY VERY HARD TO COPE WITH.

      I'm so sorry about your lost! I lost my maltese about 6 months ago and and I'm here still crying because I miss him so much. I also did not cry the day he died in my arms, I cried the week before making the decision and the week after, I was not even sleeping at night for crying so much. It does gets better and our only comfort is to think that they are not suffering anymore. Try to keep yourself busy, that has been a big help for me and try to volunteer at a shelter or a place where you can give your love to other dogs. And look for God, he was the only one who gave me the strenght to go through this, I always thought that I was not going to able to deal with the pain, but with His help, I have. God bless you!

      Thank you Shelly for the hugs and thoughts. It seems I still have a mountain to overcome but just yesterday I had such a breakthrough of really realizing how blessed I am. They found my cancer early. I do have alot of stuff to go through but I know I'm going to make it and hopefully in about 6 months, I'm going to be able to do some things I've wanted to do for so long. I want to do some traveling and just have some fun! Thanks again for the encouragement!

      you're in my thoughts and prayers. I know how hard it is to lose someone that you are so close to and loved so much. Time will heal. My love and support goes out to you. Hang in there. I'm here for you!

    • Close Bereavement
      Type: Loss of a Child

      Two years ago my 19 year old daughter passed away suddenly from a pulmonary embolism. since her death, I have been slowly falling apart, I am doing my best to hold myself together for my 5 other children, but I feel myself slipping away. Two of our dogs passed away in the last month, one of them today. I don't think I can handle much more loss, and I don't think that my kids can either.

      Treatments

      Crying Somewhat Helpful
      It is hard because I have no one to cry with. I don't want to cry in fron of my children because I don't want them to feel bad, I cry alone at night when everyone else is sleeping.
      Keeping Busy Not Working
      I spent too much time on the computer or watching tv, I feel like I am not there for my other kids.
      Pets Working / Worked
      Was working pretty well until 2 of my dogs died in the past month, now things are getting harder.
      Poetry Working / Worked
      I had been writing alot of poetry and it was making me feel better, I have not written for a long time.
