When Does it Stop???

[ZoeRestorick]

I'm glad to hear that things are getting a bit easier for you. My niece commented to me about how Ms. Ali was almost human and like your Isis she is the light of my life. Over the past few months she's had some issues with 2 knee surgeries, now a UTI and some stomach issues and I get so scared knowing that at any time I could face the pain that you and so many more have faced and still face.

I'm glad to hear that you plan on getting another boxer. I can't imagine life without one. The adoption route is a great way to give a boxer a loving home. I go to the Ontario rescue site from time to time and think that is what I would like to do but hopefully not for a long time yet.

My feeling on our beloved pets being around us is why not. When you love someone that much there spirit has to be near us. Maybe I'm crazy but I think Isis is close by you and will be there whenever you need her. She's helping you deal with her loss. Now I'm in tears. I think when you're able you will look back and think how blessed you were to have your sweet girl for so long but it's never long enough is it. We are their world and they are ours.

Your devoted girl will never be far from you and I bet she'll help you in choosing another boxer to warm your heart. She knows she'll always be your precious angel.

Hugs

Our Boxers are better than human in my opinion! I sure hope Ms Ali gets through this tough time, and am glad she has you to see her through it! She is a lucky girl to have you.

Isis is close to me, I can feel her. Every day, I keep finding one of her hairs stuck to my clothes, those that I have washed and dryed. I feel it is her way of saying "Hi Mum, I'm still with you!" Hugs to you my dear. I appreciate all your kindness during this incredibly difficult time I have been going through. And you're right, it is never long enough, so I leave you with a quote from someone much greater than me... As I find peace and would change nothing.


SEPARATE LIFETIMES

We who choose to surround ourselves
with lives even more temporary than our
own, live within a fragile circle;
easily and often breached.
Unable to accept its awful gaps,
we would still live no other way.
We cherish memory as the only
certain immortality, never fully
understanding the neccesary plan....

This verse is oh so true!!! Thank you for sharing it with me. May the beautiful memories of your precious angel help you to heal knowing that she's never very far away. She's now free from pain and her spirit is all around you. If you didn't love her as you did you wouldn't have the pain and I know you loved her so much. Hugs.

It has been over a year since we put down our beloved Satchmo, and even though I have brought two new fur babies in, the tears still flow for my big boy. It hurts still, but the days get easier. I have my boy on a shelf of our entertainment center with his picture in the urn. He is there, but nothing like that tongue over the face.

Allow yourself the time. It takes awhile. Know that we are all hurting for you as well. May our babies play together at the bridge till our time to join them.

Be blessed!!

What a beautiful passage. It really makes you realize just how fragile life is and to not take the time we have with our sweet Boxer babies for granted. Irregardless of how short or long their lives are, every day we get to spend with them is a blessing. Thank you so much for sharing, ZoeRestorick.

Thank you sriley. I know I would not have it any other way. I miss my beauty every day but would never trade the memories for anything. I am better for having loved her, no doubt in my mind! We are getting ready to do it all over again with our new 10 month old pup who will come to our loving home in less than two weeks! It has helped me deal with the loss of my Isis to know that once again our home will be filled with sweet Boxer wiggles and woo woos very soon.
