My precious Rocky is at the Bridge

[erindakoda]

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time. Try and remember the good times and find peace in your memories. Rocky knew you loved him and wouldnt want his family to be so sad. He is pain free now. Godspeed Rocky.

Thanks so much for all your comforting words and support. Rocky has been our whole life these past 12 months. I woke up several times thru the night as you all know he has slept with me since we found out about his cancer to find him not there rooting me off the bed. Last night my eyes were swollen and I had to change contacts several times. My face was chapped from tears so this morning i said I cannot cry any more. I have to take control of myself and then I looked out in my back yard and we had snow on Thur to see my Rocky's three paw prints headed back toward the house from doing his outdoor duty before we left for the vet. The tumor on his legs being so large he just walked on the three legs and of course I burst back into tears. This is the time I normally fed and gave him his medication and yes I am crying. This is so hard. I know it had to be...but the emptiness is so great. I miss my baby so much....Always Rocky's Mom

I'm so sorry for your loss, my heart goes out to you. Sending you prayers & hugs. I feel your pain, I too have been through this & its not easy.

It is heartbreaking to read the pain that you are feeling, and surely you know that everyone who has been with you since the beginning, and even people like me who found your thread just recently, are sharing your grief. There are those who have suffered the loss of their babies and personally know what you are going through, and there are those who have not who live in dread of the time when they do. We're all sad because you don't have Rocky by your side anymore.

I don't know how I missed this yesterday!

Oh sweetie, I am close to crying as hard as I did when Blizzy left me. I know it does no good to say anything. But you know our handsome warrior fought a good fight. He was ready to say goodbye to this world, escape his pain, and finally meet his buddies, Kiddo and my beautiful girl Blizzy.

I know that Chancy and Blizz were at the gate nubbys waggin in anticipation of finally meeting Rocky. The three of them are together running free as pups, looking down on all three of us.

Rocky loved you, and knows you only wanted his suffering to end. He told you he was ready. Be thankful for all that time you had with your boy.

Know that Rocky will forever be in your heart, you in his, and he will be ever vigilant watching over you and your hubby. And in time, when Rocky feels its time, he will take the perfect soul, put it in the perfect pup and send that pup to you. Your gift from him for all the years you loved and worshiped him.

How I wish we could exchange email addys. I know if you ever needed it, now is it. I can totally understand every single emotion you are going through.

All I can say is yes, it does get easier. I can't tell you when, but it does. And soon you will reflect on Rocky and do it with laughter and smiles that will replace those tears and sobs.

All my love to you.
Donna

Oh, Sweetie,

It's so, so hard when we lose our Boxer baby. Rocky was a beautiful boy. I don't blame you for holding on to him for as long as possible. You say it doesn't make you feel any better for doing the right thing and letting him go but that's not true. You know he's at peace and pain free now. I'm so sorry you had to lose your sweet boy. My heartfelt condolences are with you and your family. I hope that you find peace and nothing but beautiful memories of your dear Rocky. I'm so sorry for you.

Hugs,
Kim

My heart is breaking for you.... :(

You have been so strong for Rocky during his fight.... I don't know where you found the strength.

Rocky is waiting for you at the Bridge, just like Ginger is waiting for me. We'll all be together one day...... "Boxer Heaven" can you imagine!!!!!

I really am lost for words right now, more than you know... But we're here for you...

You are in my prayers...

Godspeed Rocky.... Moose. We love you.

Thanks so much Donna...I always think of you and Wanda because we were all three sharing the same things with our babies but you were right my Rocky just wanted to stay a bit longer and he fought a courages fight. I knew he was in pain but it was like he knew how hard this was for us and he just kept on fighting wouldn't give in. He still had a small wiggle on Friday but his breathing was so heavy and he didn't want any cheese and he loved cheese. I had read Wanda post on Thurs and she said I needed to have a talk with him and tell him it was ok to go. I told him he had been a brave baby and he was my Angel Boy & how much we loved him and he loved us back but that Hannah was waiting for him and she would take good care of him. She always thought she was his mom...she would clean his eyes and snuggle with him. I think I have cried a river of tears. I know he was in pain and I find peace in knowing he is not suffering but God only knows how much I miss him. I know Blizzy and Kiddo will take good care of him....He was our Rocky, Rocky the Moose, Mr. Catfish Lips and My Angel Boy...Thanks again Donna for all your comforting words.....Rocky's Mom forever......Vicky

I just read your post about his being diagnozed with cancer earlier and replied and then I came here and saw this post. My heart just dropped. I know there's nothing I can say that hasn't already been said. All I can say is that I'm so sorry for your loss though I know its not much. ((((Hugs))))

Melanie,

Thanks so much. I have missed seeing you on here but I know how hard it is to check on everyone. It was you, Donna. Wanda and I corresponding with each other...the first I remember when I was so sad upon finding that Rocky had cancer...you all have been a real blessing plus all the other wonderful people on here. I really don't know what I would have done without this Boxer World.....my thanks to all for your continued love and support. I hope I can give back what I have received to those in need. God Bless each of you from Rocky's Mom
