One Year Ago

This isn't a question....sorry.  One year ago today we lost our precious Sammie to CKF.  I can't believe it's been a year.  Spent most of my evening last night crying my eyes out like it had just happened.  Miss her so much.  

I am so grateful for all who guided me through this illness and her death.  You are my rocks!!  I know she is in good company in dog heaven with some amazing furry babies we have lost this year.  My heart is always with you all!!

Love,
Charlene

Dearest Charlene,

Has it been a year gone by already?...Please know, Sammie Angel runs free with Darbie, and now beloved Oliver.

The past months have been the roller coaster ride from all points beyond a compass can comprehend. It's so hard to grasp/grieve that Darbie is here to balance me...I overwhelm very easily when Doll says her name or allow myself to greet other pups...It's just been such an unsettling summer. I am having a difficult time with pictures...

My love to You and All

Lynne & Darbie Angel:)

I feel we've collectively built half a wand ... and we're working on the rest of it. One day ... we'll get there!

I apologize for all my typo's and not proofreading my prior response to you,....no...I'm not illiterate. I'm proud of you for finding the courage to rescue another dog. I know that was a very hard decision after loosing Sammie. Guess it also takes a great deal of courage to participate at this site to help others in their journey with CKD and their 'Best Friends'.

I'm certain that everyone here that have traveled that journey would have one wish, and that would be to turn the clock back and have our 'Best Friends' back with us and wave a magic wand to make CKD 'Go Away'.

Take Care,

Earl

Wow....it's coming up on a year for Steffie also?  It seems so fast yet so slow.

Please know how much we all understand and feel your pain.  Every loss on this CKF site breaks my heart.  

I have  picture also by my bed.  I do once in a while find myself smiling when I think of Sammie.  The tears are more frequent.  I do smile more now since rescuing another dog.  Although no dog could replace the loss I feel about Sammie, at least I feel she'd be proud that we saved another life!!

Best wishes,
Charlene

I know ow it is, and this coming Nov 17 will be a year later for Steffie. I have a pic of Steffie on my bedide liht stand. Tell her I'm sorry, I Love Her & I miss Her EVERY SINGLE NIGHT since last Nov 17and I've shed tears as a result every single time.

Out of ~five friends I grew up with, I or my family was the only ones with pets.......they still haven't a clue about the grief and heartache.

Regards,

Earl
