My heart aches for you...
because I know the feeling only to well. We lost our 10 1/2 year old Boxer Faithy this summer and it was one of the saddest times in my life and still, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of her and that sweet silver face.
Your not crazy for continuing to do all the things you've been so accustomed to do, it's old habits and all great ones. I also didn't wash Faithy's bed for 2 months after she was gone and for the same reasons that you mentioned. It kept a part of her with us, little bits of fur and her scent, very hard things to let go of when your heart aches for them.
Just try and find strength in knowing that so many people are keeping you in their thoughts and in time you'll think of her with a smile instead of tears, well tears sometimes. She'll be forever in your heart.
Rest Peacefully Sweet Blizzy. (((Hugs)))

OMG!! I could swear you are me typing this. I have sobbed for 5 min before i could type. I am SO SO SO sorry for your loss. What a splendid dog you had and how enriched your life was for being a part of it. My heart aches for you and I can only envision your baby at the bridge with the 'others' from here. God speed your broken heart!

Sorry Donna I wanted to respond earlier, but I just couldn't bring myself to come here because I get hysterical when I do. I just want to say If you are crazy then I am too. I haven't washed anything of Lexus'. I have a pair of jammies that have her hair on them yet and I refuse to wash them...I will never ever again wear the same clothes that I wore that horrible day.
So just know that you aren't the only crazy woman on here.

I am so sorry for you loss. I cannot imagine the pain you are going through, but it sounds like she truly was ready.
So sorry for your loss. I do hope that all the wonderful memories help with your healing. You, your family and Blizzy are in my thoughts.
You are not crazy. May I suggest something...years ago we lost our 4 year old minpin, I couldn't bear to wash the shirts dh and I wore while we held him during his last moments on this earth, I folded each neatly and placed them in a large zip lock bag that I keep under our bed. For some time whenever I needed to, I would take out my shirt and breathe. I found some comfort in this and have never told anyone (I don't even think dh knows where they are) maybe this can help comfort you as well.

donna i am so sorry for your loss. i lost my best friend on memorial day(my cat precious she was 21) and the pain you feel will go away (i promise) but take all the time you need to grieve . as for seeing your baby ive caught glimpses of precious in our home and it makes me feel so happy when i do sounds as if your baby is still watching out for you even from up there.

I couldn't read all of the post. That story made my eyes well up. There are two things I can't handle in life. This is one and the other one is a baby's dirty diaper. You did the right thing. I am sorry for your loss.

You gave your Blizzy the greatest gift of all. You let her know you understood it was her time to go and only then like the doctor said did she go and oh so peacefully. She will be with forever now within your heart and memories..It's so awful saying good bye to our babies..You and your family are in my prayers...
