Mira, 7yr old Husky - Cushings ruled out; liver cancer (Mira has passed)

[Altira]

God this hurts. I've been run over by a steam roller and lived. There are no pain killers for me. God says I have to keep on living. I can think of nothing more crewel. He won't even let me sleep.

[Altira]

I'll never get that sweet face out of my mind. That sweet young face. Good god. My Mirie-moo. Why did you have go so soon?

[gpgscott]

Janis,

I have not posted to you before.

I also have lost little ones way before their time.

It is not you and it is certainly not Mira. I think it is simply fate.

Be strong, I believe Mira was sent to you for a reason.

Godspeed Mira.

Janis,

I am so sorry to hear Mira lost the final battle. It was her time and nothing you could have done would have changed that. You loved and cared for her as long as you were allowed and that's all we can do.

My mothers first child's name was Scottie. He died when he was 1 1/2. I of course never knew him. He choked to death on the changing table strap. Imagine. Another death too soon. Thank you Scott my brother. It was fate for certain. And I will look for that reason.

Dear Janis
I can't stop crying for you.
After reading your post, all I can say is you loved Mira dearly and you did the best you could for your Mira, and she knew that. I wish I could give you a shoulder to cry on.
I will be praying for you
dear sweet Janis

that special place in our hearts
feels so empty...
But we realize, as times passes,
that animals have a way of teaching us about loving,
about loyalty, joy, and friendship...
And whatever we've shared in their presence
can never really be lost.

Thinking of You
At This Time
sharing in your grief

Janis,

I am so sorry to hear this news.
It's so unfair when they are so young.
Please know that you did all you could have done for Mira.
And that Mira was loved more in her short life than most dogs are in ten times as long. She was blessed to have your care and your love.

[Altira]

She was a lucky dog. I hope she was.

I work with grieving families everyday... I often search for poems to comfort families during this most difficult time. I came across this poem/letter and it really touched me. I thought I would share it with you.....I have read it so many times and each time I cry....
Take care, Heidi

A Simple Message From Your Pet
by Ken D. Conover

To have loved and then said farewell is better than to have never loved at all.
For all of the times that you stooped and touched my head, fed me my favorite treat and returned the love that I so unconditionally gave to you.
For the care that you gave to me so unselfishly.
For all of these things I am grateful and thankful.
I ask that you grieve not for the loss but rejoice in the fact that we lived, loved and touched each other's lives.
My life was fuller because you were there, not as owner, but as my friend.
Today, I am as I was in my youth.
The grass is always green, butterflies flit among the flowers and the sun shines gently down upon all of God's creatures.
I can run, jump and play and do all of the things that I did in my youth.
There is no sickness, no aching joints and no regrets and no aging.
We await the arrival of our lifelong companions and know that togetherness is forever.
You live in our hearts as we do in yours.
Companions such as you are very rare and unique.
Don't hold the love that you have within yourself.
Give it to another like me and then I will live forever. For love never really dies, and you are loved and missed as surely as we are.

Your pet in heaven.

I am so very sorry Mira has passed. My heart is with you. She knows you tried and in your heart you know this too. She is pain free now and will be watching over you and Kira.

(((hugs)))
