In reply to the discussion: Goodbye Randall, My Old Friend [View all]dai13sy
(457 posts)24. My heart is with you
There is never enough time it seems. You get in as much love as you can. You have long talks about everything every day. You have so many snuggles it seems like they never end because they are so important and there are so many. We bought a rose for our Daisy Mae and we buried her in the backyard and planted the rose on her grave. That rose is magic. It's taller than both of us and is loaded with blooms every year. Last year she produced 73 blooms. I cried.. Dogs make it so easy to love them and so hard to let them go but the love lasts forever.

Pets are like children that never grow up. Although we know their time is short, it's tough to handle their passing.

It is amazing how they burrow so deeply and quietly into our hearts. You were blessed. I am sorry for your loss.

I know the feeling sadly as I've lost all my cats and my one brother won't let me get any new pets.

Losing a beloved pet, especially one who has been by your side for so long is devastating.
