Hi Terri...
I'm doing ok. Ruby is still looking for Riley, but we are slowly making a new routine. It's been raining a lot here lately, which doesn't really help the mood, but when it's nice she and I take our walk together. That's when I see her the most happy.
I miss Riley everyday, but everyday I get a little stronger and don't cry as much. When he was first diagnosed with the Lymphoma, I was sad all the time. Just watching him get sicker each day was torture. Then when he went on the prednisone, it was almost like we forgot he was sick. I'm thankfull for those extra 3-4 months when the girls were home from college and didn't have to see him so sick. I'm trying to keep the mind-set that he is no longer suffering. I miss my goofy guy though.
I know you are missing Faith, and it is hard to come home and not see her waiting for you. I hope that you have wonderful family and friends like I do who know how much you loved Faith and will help you heal.
Thank you for checking on me, and stay in touch. We have been through a lot of heartache, but I know we can make it. I long for the day when I think of Riley and smile
Hugs,
Julie and Ruby

I am so sorry to hear about your Riley - so soo sad. Ruby will need lots of extra attention now, kisses, hugs, reassurance. She will heal in time, just like you will.

I'm so very sorry about Riley. Ruby has to grieve too and in her time she will heal just like you. I'm sure that seeing Ruby like this makes it even harder to bear Riley's loss. Your post brought a tear to my eye. Pls. know you are in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs. RIP sweet Riley.
