Today, at 4:30 pm, my sweet little boy, Sparky, left my side to go on to Rainbow Bridge. I will forever love him and cherish his memory, and I will miss him so very, very much.
Twice last night I woke up thinking about you. I was dreaming about you and Sparky. You've both been so much on my mind as I know it must feel like someone has just cut your very soul out of you. I know the emptiness. I just wanted to let you know I've been thinking about you. It's a super slow process, but there is healing, even if you'll never be the same agian. There is healing as you find the love is not really gone at all. Please know that I and, probably many, others are thinking about you as you travel this dark and scary road.
Mareike, while we don't actually know each other, I honestly believe that, somehow, your Sparky and my Joe have been joined...forever. Desperate for anything to help Joe, I stumbled upon your blog...your diet and supplement advice are helping Joe to improve; I have complete faith in that. Last night, I was logging on to check on your blog and Joe actually bugged me with nose nudges (a very rare thing in the past two weeks) to go for a walk. I didn't check your blog, and spent some quality outdoor time with my "little man". While, like you, I know the realities of the situation, I'm clinging to the straw of belief that we will have time...much more, if I have my way! I saw your post, today, and cried tears for you, for Sparky and for the deep love that you have for each other...nothing I can write will ease that pain, other than knowing that others feel the same as you, right now. I'd like to believe that part of Sparky's spirit is alive within Joe and hope that knowing that will, in some way, make these days a bit easier for you. Maureen - Plymouth, MI
