I am so very sorry Addy. She tried so hard but she is now at peace breathing and playing and running with those who have gone before.
Much love

Rest in peace precious Zoe. Running free with all your many, many sweet friends and my girl Princess at that Rainbow Bridge. What a joyful image! You will always hold a special place in all our hearts.
Sweet Addy, I love you and tight group hugs coming your way.

Dear Addy:
I wanted to log on and see how Zoe was before leaving to find Grace a new home. I was so shocked and saddened to hear Zoe left you. I am glad she was with you in your arms as she has always known that special love from you. This is so hard as you and Zoe are like the icons of this site. It will never be the same here, but Zoe will live on thru those of us who loved you both. Zoe fought a valiant battle and had a very long journey thanks to the loving care of her mom. Rest in peace sweet Zoe we will remember you always and think of you each day we log on here. Run free Zoe and play with the others that crossed before you. God Bless you and your husband Addy.

It was so hard to see her struggle to breathe, my beautiful little girl.
The house is filled with her, every room, little rugs, runners, her meds had taken over the bathroom, sweaters, coats, dog beds, dishes , food, bowls, toys
How could one little girl have so much stuff?
She is at peace now and hopefully I will find peace too, once I can sleep.
May you know that absence is full
Of tender presence and that
Nothing is ever lost or forgotten.
May the absences in your life be full of eternal echo.
May you sense around you the secret
Elsewhere which holds the presences
That have left your life.
May you be generous in your embrace of loss.
May the sore of your grief turn into a well
Of seamless presence.
May your compassion reach out to the ones
We never hear from and may you have
The courage to speak out for the excluded ones.
May you become the gracious
And passionate subject of your own life.
May you not disrespect your mystery
Through brittle words or false belonging.
May you be embraced by God in whom
Dawn and twilight are one and may
Your longing inhabit its deepest dreams
Within the shelter of the Great Belonging.

Do you like milky drinks maybe make a cocoa or hot chocolate. Hot sweet tea can also be good
I am here with you so if you can't sleep your not on your own. Dont have to talk unless you want to. Am holding your hand from here Addy xxx
Oh, Addy.
My heart aches for you. I know what you mean about the "stuff". I see Alivia's everywhere. For little ones they really did have a lot! You loved Zoe with all your heart and she had a good life with you and your husband. She is now free from pain and all of those medications. But, I know there is a huge hole in your heart. I feel it, too. For me, the kind words and true understanding of everyone here has been a tremendous comfort. I hope that is true for you as well. Hopefully Zoe and Alivia found each other and finally got to meet. We each have a special angel now, for sure. I will cry extra tears today.
Dear Addy,
I've been hoping and praying for Zoe's rally back but my heart's been broken into million pieces for you and Zoe this morning.
I've just read a very few of your earliest posts and found out that Zoe was with only for not quite 7 years. Too short of a time to enjoy and cherish each other especially the way you've loved one another but I think the quality of happy times you two have shared in those short years were immeasurable. She was one lucky and smart pup to have picked you and your husband as her eternal mom and dad and I know she is forever grateful to you both for all those showers of love and affection she got everyday of her life with you two.
I wish I knew how to take some of your heartache away but I'm afraid I don't. The only thing I can say is I'm so very sorry, Addy. I can't stop crying for you and your sweet Zoe. I'm so sorry.
Even Koko is here because of Zoe. Everything we did revolved around our little girl. When her best friend moved away;he lived next door, we adopted a brother for her. She missed Izzy so much she would sit at the fence and wait for him to come to her. It broke my heart so we adopted Koko for her. And she was so sweet to him, he had so many issues. Koko has never stayed alone in the house without her. I am very worried about how we will leave him alone when hubby leaves for work.
Mel- I am so glad you are safe from the storms. I always worry about you when I read the headlines.
Zoe was my heart dog, the one that comes around once in a lifetime.
Our time together was too short. She came form Animal Control.
Part of me died with her in those early morning hours. I knew that it would.
Koko does not look so good. He has no place to poo, our yard is all ice. I best take him out again.
