Hi,

It hurts so bad because we love our precious babies so much. The love we share with them is totally unconditional and like no other. They are there for us through difficult times and never judge us. For all they give they ask for very little in return. The love is pure, and perfect.

Unfortunately, the time always comes when we have to let them go. How wonderful it would be if we could have our babies here with us for our entire lives, and that they would remain healthy. But animals age fast and their bodies wear out faster. So we have to say goodbye.

Euthanasia is a decision that is both difficult and easy. We know it's the right thing to do for the animal, but it is oh, so, difficult for us.

I believe that life goes on and in a sense our babies never totally leave us. A few days after Timothy's passing, I had a dream about him in which he jumped on the bed. He was young and healthy again and I remember clearly what it felt like to pet him. Somehow, in the dream I knew that this was a visitation and I welcomed Timothy back. He let me know that he is ok. I also believe that I will see him again when it is my time to leave this world, along with my other precious Angels.

This week I am starting a memory book for all my babies that have left me. It will be a nice way to honor them. Perhaps, in time, you will be able to do something similar, or maybe even write a story or a poem for your baby.

I will be thinking of all of you on Thursday and will be sending healing GLOW your way.

Regards,
PHKitkat
