Today I am losing one of my best friends in this world.  My Thai, who has been my heart and constant for these last 12 1/2 years.  

I am broken.

oh my friend
I am so sorry to hear this
I went through this last month with our little princess doggy....not an easy day
but you have not lost her my friend
she will forever remain with you...

I will share with you what I said to Uma....
"You have done your job and I am grateful for that...thank you for the love (and the drama) you were happy, we were happy I thank you for that...now I let you go to do what it is you must do....it is time"

crap
it was hard
my husband couldn't even go with me
now of course regrets that
but a wonderful thing happened later that night
he and I went down to the river with her collar
we had a little goodbye ceremony and throw her collar into the rive
and then we wnt out for dinner
we were sitting on a deck over looking the river and a little spider decided to join us from above and we were both looking at it when I have this overwhelming feeling of Uma...the voice inside me said..said it out loud, so I shared with S my feeling and he said he had the same feeling too...it was like Uma was using the spider to let us know she was ok...it was a real moment for us....

holding all of you today
as you take this difficult road
what a good mammy you are : )
I grieve her along side of you♥

love and light

As Taddy said, you CAN do this. I'm just so very sorry, for both you and Thai, that you have to.

prairiegirl said...

Oh Kelly. Frame that picture...there's joy in both faces and sweet memories. It'll remind you everyday. Letting your soul kitty go is one of the hardest things you'll ever do. I know this. I KNOW this. You brought handsome Thai as much comfort as he brought you, and knowing this, you can peacefully part. Love XO
